Bungendore Coaches Joins the Junior Tigers!

In what can only be described as a massive coup for the Tigers push to develop the new Bungendore Cubs Aussie Rules Football Club, Stevens Charter Service has come on board as a Major Sponsor for the 2010 season.

With Goal Posts being installed at Warren Little Oval Bungendore in the next couple of weeks and plans to have a couple of our Tigers Under 8s and Under 9s games at Bungendore during this season, the prospects of the new CUBS team being a reality in the coming years is gaining positive momentum.

Queanbeyan Tigers Junior Football Club are pleased to announce that long time supporter and sponsor of the Junior Tigers, Palmer’s TV Antennas & Satellite Installations as their new Principal Partner for the next 3 years.

In a huge boost for the junior club the owner of Palmer’s Mick Palmer agreed to terms last week and he was impressed with the direction the Juniors were heading and was more than happy being involved with the club for the next 3 years.

Football Manager Adrian Pavese expressed his excitement about the new deal, “To have a local company like Palmer’s who has supported the Juniors over the past 10 years, it was a very easy decision to offer Mick the Inaugural Principal Partner Sponsorship of the Junior Tigers”.

“The juniors have been very fortunate to have Palmer’s support and this partnership begins a new era for both organisations. To be aligned with such a fantastic company is a huge bonus for our club and we look forward to the next 3 years with renewed optimism due to this sponsorship arrangement” Pavese added

NAB and the Tigers working to together!

The NAB Bank Queanbeyan and the Queanbeyan Junior Tigers have joined forces to promote the NAB Introducer Program. For every Home Loan over $50,000 approved with the NAB Bank and you name the Queanbeyan Tigers as your club, NAB will then donate .66% of the Loan to the Tigers!!

Bulldogs Visit to Tiger Land a Huge Hit!

In what was a fantastic three days for the Queanbeyan Region, nine Western Bulldogs AFL Stars visited schools and attended the Junior Tigers Registration Day during their AFL Community Camp program.

The Bulldogs players included Captain & 349 game veteran Brad Johnson, Triple Premiership Player & 2001 Brownlow Medalist Jason Akermanis, 167 game star Robert Murphy, established players Tim Callan and Andreius Everitt. Also making a visit to our city were Rookies Brennan Stack, Shane Thorne, Ed Prato and Matthew Panos.

Schools in the Queanbeyan Area that were visited included QBN East, QBN Public, QBN West, Jerrabomberra, Bungendore, Sutton and Gundaroo Public Schools.

Approx 700 children were entertained by the players for half an hour and prizes and handouts were the highlight.

The other highlight of the three days was the AFL players attending the Junior Tigers Rego Day on the Saturday. Approx 50 people showed up between 12pm to 1pm to have photos and get autographs for the Bulldogs Stars. Captain Brad Johnson being the obvious hit of the afternoon.
