Maroubra Dragon Boating Club Wins NRMA Everyday Sporting

Author: NRMA MediaDate: 28 January 2010

The Chinese Youth League (CYL) Dragon Boating Club based in Maroubra has 10,000 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.

Australian Olympic swimming gold medalist and NRMA Director Dawn Fraser 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 CYL Dragon Boating Club was one of five winners that received a $10,000 Rebel Sport gift card to purchase much needed gym equipment for the club's fitness training sessions and training vests for the upcoming racing season," Ms Fraser said.

"The club's online profile page at www.nrmalegends.com.au received 227 supporters during the competition.

"You can see that a strong and positive team spirit is promoted.

"The entry included a video presentation which showed club members in competition and training as well as enjoying fun team building times outside of dragon boating.

"It is exactly the kind of sporting group the NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program aims to help."

Ms Fraser said the quality of entries for the first ever NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program was extremely impressive with a host of stories, photos and video footage submitted to support a variety of sporting goals from NSW and ACT communities.

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