Central Coast Is Full Of NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends


Central Coast Is Full Of NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends

Author: NRMA MediaDate: 28 January 2010

Central Coast junior AFL team, the Peninsula Swans have 5,000 reasons to celebrate the New Year as one of the lucky winners of the 2009 NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program.

NRMA Motoring & Services and Rebel Sport teamed up for the first time last year to support sport in NSW and ACT communities with up to $150,000 in Rebel Sport gift cards up for grabs.

NRMA Director Kyle Loades said the NRMA was flooded with entries from primary and secondary schools, sports teams and individuals wanting their chance to receive a $10,000, $5,000 or $500 Rebel Sport gift card.

"The Peninsula Swans club was one of fifteen winners throughout NSW and the ACT to receive a $5,000 Rebel Sport gift card," Mr Loades said.

The team's online entry said a fire in their storage shed had destroyed all of their equipment and any support from the NRMA would go a long way towards getting the kids back to playing the sport they enjoy so much.

Darren Beattie from Berkeley Vale, Jackson Ryan from Tascott and Julie Legge from Norville also received a $500 Rebel gift card each to pursue their individual sporting dreams.

Darren is a talented softball player selected for the 2010 NSW under 16 men's softball team, five year old Jackson is an enthusiastic footballer, and soccer player Julie is working towards representing Australia at the Olympics one day after attending an advanced coaching course with the Central Coast Mariners.

Mr Loades said these are exactly the kind of sporting groups and individuals the NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program aims to help.

The first ever NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program has been well received with a host of quality stories, photos and video footage submitted to support a variety of sporting goals from NSW and ACT communities. To view all of the winning entries from the ACT and NSW visit www.nrmalegends.com.au

Rebel Sport is part of the NRMA's More4Members rewards program which gives Members access to a vast range of instant discounts and benefits.
