Ryde Hunters Hill Cricket Cub Becomes An NRMA Everyday

Author: NRMA MediaDate: 28 January 2010

The Ryde Hunters Hill Cricket 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.

Champion Australian rally co-driver and NRMA Director Coral Taylor 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 Ryde Hunters Hill Pirates Club, which is a family-oriented club with players from four years old through to senior level, was one of fifteen winners throughout NSW and the ACT to receive a $5,000 Rebel Sport gift card," Ms Taylor said.

"The Pirates online entry said with few cricket facilities in the area, the club's main focus is to build gated cricket nets at Boronia Park so the children can play in a secure and well-lit environment.

"Adventurer Jiasi Zhan from Gladesville also received a $500 Rebel gift card.

"Jiasi would like to purchase travelling-related equipment such as hiking shoes or ski equipment to enhance her athletic pursuits.

"These are exactly the kind of sporting groups and individuals the NRMA Everyday Sporting Legends Program aims to help."

Ms Taylor 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.
