“Supermarket bag pack is always a favourite, footy cards, car washing (try picking a nice day), sponsored walk (luckily I was in the support car), we hired a small club room and put on a band and food and sold tickets, did a couple of car boots (good earners), making up hampers for Easter, Xmas etc, footy fun events wet sponge the manager and assistants, footy shoot outs and barbecues. We did all of these and raised some serious money to fund the team’s trip to Barcelona. We’ve had some good laughs together, great times.” – Tony Orwin at Clifton Rangers JFC.
