Supporting Youth Development and Club Polocrosse in NSW
In response to feedback from the membership, the PA NSW Board and Council have adopted a user pays system for representative polocrosse including events such as the Nationals, Barastoc, and the Albury-Holbrook COVID Cup. This approach has been adopted to ensure that the State’s component of the annual player membership fees are kept as low as possible for all of the State’s members. This approach, along with other centralised cost-cutting measures, has already allowed for a $50 reduction in the annual fee for senior members for the 2021 season.
Balanced against this; the Board remains committed to supporting youth development in a financially self-supporting way. To this effect, the Board has been working hard in the background to attract sponsors to our sport, particularly for the purposes of youth development. As a result of these efforts, the Board is pleased to announce that Kelato Animal Health (https://www.kelato.com.au/) and Trans-Australian Livestock & Freight Management (https://www.talfm.com.au/) have come on board as State-level sponsors for the Royal Easter Show and Albury-Holbrook COVID Cup, respectively. Their sponsorship means that the State can waive nomination fees for both of these events, while still maintaining them as financially independent.
Kelato Animal Health would also like to extend their support to our sport by offering a 10% discount to PA NSW members that order through their online store (https://www.kelato.com.au/) using the code “PANSW” at checkout.
Please support our sponsors and make sure that when you do, you tell them that you’re from Polocrosse NSW. This simple act makes a huge difference when we approach them to support our sport. The Board is very excited about resumption of our sport in the coming weeks and continues to work hard in the background to support the membership at all levels from Club through to International polocrosse.
