t is safe to say the first ever Carramar Shamrock Rovers Family Fun Day was a huge success. Officially the busiest day the club has ever seen with hundreds of our members and friends flocking to Grandis Park to enjoy a fun packed day. Our canteen staff worked tirelessly whilst the kids enjoyed bubble soccer, face painting, bouncy castle and lots more. Our U8, 9 & 10s even got to enjoy a couple of games on the day as we were supported by other local junior football teams. Our Girls Under16s did a fantastic job selling raffle tickets on the day and of course the highlight of the day was the raffle for the Mini Cooper, donated by Madman Motors, which was won by local man Steven Mackin, whose daughter plays in our U11s team. As a not for profit community based club, days like this are hugely important to help us generate income to put back into the club for the benefit of all our members. A key focus area for the funds raised will be improving our junior set up.

This fund will also be used to help send some of our junior teams to tournaments such as the Bunbury Cup and the
