Who are the Hurlers ?

We have an eclectic mix of backgrounds and professions. Most of us are in our mid-40's, several are pushing 50 an a few well over. Though the Football part is important, it is not our only focus.

What is Charity Day Round:

The U/16 Hurlerstone Park Boys team was seeking donations to help fund their entry and trip to the annual Kanga Cup tournament in Canberra.  We thought this was a worthy cause and arranged a team dinner, raffled and auctioned various game day items (such as match day positions, the captain of the day, right to take next penalty kick) and instigated a loose fine system to raise money. We raised money for the boys (who co-incidentally won the tournament). Our donation was more than half the total money raised by the team.

A trivia night was arranged at Petersham Bowling Club in addition to the series of match day activities and ‘fines’.  Team members donated both cash and a range of items to raffle and auction. Pink socks were worn to support #pullupyoursocks.Overall, Charity Day 2016 raised over $3,000 for our chosen charities.

The Hurlers also auctioned off a headshave and raised an additional $4,000 in July 2017, when 7 Hurlers shaved their heads for DoitforCancer.
