At Monarch, we ‘re passionate about making a positive contribution to the broader community. In our latest project, and with the help of 101.9 The Fox FX, we sponsored a competition which gave local Melbourne football clubs the opportunity to win the Ultimate Pre-Season Club Grounds Update!
This update featured painting professional AFL-standard line markings on their home ground, along with the addition of their club logo, and an exclusive Mini Monarch footy clinic with AFL legend Brendan ‘Fev’ Fevola!
The competition received entries from sporting clubs all across Victoria, but there could only be one winner, which was the Belgrave Junior Football Club, the Magpies!
Belgrave Junior Football Club was established as a stand-alone entity in 1972. Since its beginning, Belgrave JFC has enjoyed continued success, with teams playing in finals most years and has long been a vital part of the Belgrave community. A family-oriented club that prides itself on developing young players with a focus on friendship, fair play and fun.
The Monarch Mini football clinic with Fev was a great success! On a warm April evening, Fev put both Under 11s and Under 17s girls’ teams through their paces, with a particular focus on kicking a few ‘snags' just like Fev used to do! We’re not sure if there’s been a better attended Wednesday night footy training at Belgrave, with a BBQ to end the evening and plenty of selfies and autographs, it was enjoyable for all those who attended.
Monarch would like to extend an enormous thank you to Fev, 101.9 The Fox FM, and to the incredible team who helped organise the competition. It was a huge success which was additionally confirmed by the huge smiles from kids, coaches and parents. A great afternoon for all involved!
