The 2012 Grassroots Sports Luncheon is coming up fast.
The final list of speakers has been confirmed and it really is a ripper line up of talent. This includes:
·         Trevor Marmalade – Well know comedian and ex AFL Footy Show/Hey Hey its Saturday entertainer
·         Vince Sorrenti – MC & Guest Comedian – Australia’s favourite comic entertainer (and latest casualty in Celebrity Apprentice!)
·         Dermott Brereton – Ex Hawthorn Great, media guru and arguably one of the game’s best ever Centre Half Forwards
·         Jonathan Brown – Brisbane Lion Legend – ex Victorian Captain and arguably one of the game’s best ever Centre Half Forwards
·         Michael Nettlefold – Ex Saint & Lions player and now St Kilda FC CEO having dealt with the Grant Thomas & Ross Lyon coaching cycles
 Jupiters have described our line up as the best they have seen for a Sports Luncheon.
 As has been the history of the event, the emphasis on Grassroots will be entertainment

Ladders, Goalkickers and BEST Votes

Seems Tink - is playing another game tomorrow -  might be the last winner of the  the Syd Guildford Medal. The NEAFL website is talking in terms of "nominees" in much the same way the NAB rising star of the year is determined. Can't find any reference or explanation to this apparent change in policy. Unusual? Not enough spectators to go around? Who cares? We have the BEST. See below

Steven Semaan of Clear Smiles Orthodontics has offered our junior and senior members a fantastic offer for mouth guards. These mouth guards are the real deal custom moulded mouth guards. They can also be made to have our own CATS colours on them if that’s what you want . These custom mouth guards normally sell for well over $170 but for our members clear smiles will offer them for ONLY $99 for our kids and $129 for our adults (seniors) and with this offer they will throw in a free $165 orthodontic consultation. If we get good interest these prices will be reduced even more . This is a very generous offer guys so lets get behind our sponsors and club and more to the point save your teeth ..

Important: It is our intention to review the Football Club constitution with a view to amending voting rights at AGMs. At present it is unclear whether LC members may vote or indeed if they are members of the Senior Football Club. The proposed review will enshrine the right of financial and life members of the Senior Football Club only to have the vote at AGMS. It will mean that unless you can produce a valid 2012 membership card/life member card, or proxy thereof, you will not be able to vote at Senior Football Club  AGMs, nor stand for the Committe. If you want to fully participate in the future of the BB SAFC, goto http://broadbeachcats.com.au/shop.php and opt for one of the membership types.
