The Dragons Junior Rugby Union Club based in Eumundi is well on the way to another successful season in 2018 with an increase in the number of sponsors signing on to give financial support next year.
A proud sponsor since 2013, Cooroy Community Bank branch of Bendigo Bank manager Geoff Edwards said he looked forward to the 2018 season, being part of a great club and mixing it with the members.
“For five seasons we’ve watched the club and its teams grow and strengthen,” he said. “Our support is made possible through our customers, as we exist because locals said they wanted their own bank.
“It’s special to come to pre-season Dragons’ training and end of season presentations and seeing the jerseys with our logo on it.”
Club president Doug Toms said without the support of these local businesses and organisations our fantastic little club would not be able to continue to provide such an enjoyable and fulfilling sporting experience for the young players who continue to be our members and those we hope will join us in 2018.
“With still a couple of months till the start of next year’s season the club is still on the lookout for more sponsors whose brand/logo will be proudly displayed on club uniforms, on websites and Facebook, in club bulletins and on home ground billboards. Building partnerships with the local community is one of the main aims or points of focus for our club as we go from strength to strength,” he said.
To date the list of sponsors include Imperial Hotel, Eumundi Meats, Bendigo Bank – Cooroy, Leo Wiles Photography, Noosa Hinterland Realty, The Bakehouse, Heartwood Financial Services, Sunshine Toyota, Brush and Bristle Barbers, Templeton’s Ginger, Eumundi/Cooroy Masonic Club.
