Gala Days

Throughout the year several gala days are held around the region for different programs. Sometimes these are one-off opportunities to come and try a football program, or others are for schools or communities to run gala days. 

These provide teams with opportunities to play against teams they wouldn’t get to during our competitions or to raise awareness and sign-ups for various football programs. 

Take a look at our upcoming gala days for more information or to register your interest in attending.
