Footy Colours Day Hits the Hospitals Last month, players from Adelaide United’s Hyundai A-League and Westfield W-League squads visited the children in our education program at the Women's and Children's Hospital to celebrate Footy Colours Day. The players participated in learning sessions and handed out merchandise to the very happy children! The Principal at the Hospital School SA said she had ‘never seen some of the students smile so much'. If your school, workplace, group or club hosted a Footy Colours Day in September, now is the time to bank your funds! Visit footycoloursday.com.au to find out how. Regional vs Metro Charity Match Staff from Commonwealth Bank participated in the annual Regional vs Metro charity football match recently to raise funds to support families living with cancer. The two regions hosting the match raised more than $8,000 to support the revitalisation of the Commonwealth Bank Room at our North Melbourne accommodation centre. The room provides children staying at the accommodation centre with a play area and families with a communal lounge. Thanks to Commonwealth Bank and their generous staff for their support – we can’t wait to see the new and improved room!
