Sharks hope to attack new season

The newly formed Geelong Sharks Rugby League Club held a come and try and meet the coaches day at Ervin Reserve Newcomb on Saturday.

The turn out exceeded all expectations and reinforced the genuine interest for rugby league in the Greater Geelong region.

The day involved a junior skills workshop with representatives from NRL Victoria and the seniors having a scratch game of touch. Everyone was treated with a free sausage sizzle and drinks.

Many prospective members signing up to play or volunteer.

Anyone who is interested in playing or helping out can go to Geelong Sharks Rugby League Club’s Facebook or Instagram pages.

Who knows – the next Billy Slater, Cameron Smith or Cameron Munster could come from Greater Geelong.
