Queanbeyan Tigers Become NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends

Author: NRMA MediaDate: 28 January 2010

The Queanbeyan Tigers junior AFL club has 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 Alan Evans 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 Queanbeyan Tigers club was one of fifteen winners throughout NSW and the ACT to receive a $5,000 Rebel Sport gift card," Mr Evans said.

"The Tigers' online profile page at www.nrmalegends.com.au received 103 supporters during the competition.

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

The Tigers' online entry said the NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program could help many clubs like theirs which struggle for the sponsorship dollar.

In the club's online blog one of the supporters, Deb, said they loved the Tigers because of their experience of supporting their son who started at the club as a four year old and was still there playing senior football.

Deb wrote that she was proud to be associated with a club that supported families as well as awesome kids.

Mr Evans said the Tigers team was exactly the kind of sporting group 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.

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