    • Aim to finish by 4pm at the latest to head back to the hotel for presentation drinks

  • The key to this being a successful event is ensuring you have 'buy in' from all parties. This must include staff/management, sporting club members and locals
  • Ensure your event detail is thoroughly planned out and clear with all parties involved
  • Create your 'All-stars team' by bringing together key members of your team who will benefit the relationship and getting to know the different members of the club
  • Create as much chatter around the day as possible. Ensure all parties are actively generating excitement.
  • Friendly banter in the lead up on facebook and in person will assist with creating positive WOM.
  • Contact local press to showcase the relationship and generate additional interest within the local community. Please speak with Bianca Vlasic for assistance in contacting local media
  • Consider 'match outfits' for venue teams - these can be kept year in, year out and will help identify the team when playing. Simple singlets with hotel logos, hat etc would be effective. Please speak to Alistair Flower for cost approval here.
