At a glance with the CEO

There is never a dull time of year at Southport Sharks. This winter we are gearing up for the annual Carlton Mid Celebrity Sports Lunch on July 8, a major highlight on our events calendar.

In addition to our MC Sam Kekovich, I am excited to announce that we have secured special guest Graham Richardson, who has a colourful political career in the Labor Party and who now hosts his own program on SKY News.

In more event news, I am happy to see an ever growing line-up of local acts set to perform within the club. The Gold Coast is a melting pot of talent and we are excited to host Platform on select Friday nights which showcases a different group of local talented musicians each month. We are also proud to sponsor for the second year running, the Gold Coast Music Awards held on June 16.

To create even more benefit and comfort for our members, we are planning some updates throughout the club. Our cafĂŠ will be refreshed with the inclusion of ceiling plants and greenery for a more intimate feel, while Cabana Bar & Lounge is receiving a facelift including new furniture coverings, as well as more greenery and wooden entrance doors to enhance its enchanted garden feeling.

Finally, I would like to take the opportunity to recognise some very hard working and loyal team members. 2016 marks the 20 year anniversary of our Chief Operating Officer Chris Jones, Carmel Berryman who works in Promotions and Frenzy Food Court, as well as Sharon Kilcullen who works in Finance. I would like to thank Chris, Carmel and Sharon for their ongoing contributions and loyalty to our club.

We hope to see you at Sharks soon.

THE MONTH THAT WAS…

Anzac Day

Cuisine and Couture

Mother’s Day

Southport Sharks was decorated in traditional red poppies over the long weekend in April to commemorate our ANZAC soldiers. Mackenzie’s Sports Bar was the place to watch the Collingwood VS Essendon game.

April’s Cuisine and Couture was particularly popular with the introduction of men’s fashion from Urbbana of Surfers Paradise.

Join us in Carmody’s every last Friday of the month for a delicious luncheon and a fashion parade featuring local designers and retailers.

Mum was the word on Sunday May 8 at Southport Sharks.

Mums were treated to delicious dining options throughout the club including a decadent three course menu in Carmody’s, or a delicious buffet of seafood for lunch or dinner in Frenzy Food Court.

Community

HERE FOR THE

Southport Sharks introduced the Sharks Community Benefit Fund in 2008 with a goal to support local organisations and causes that align with the club’s values and visions. Eight years on and Southport Sharks has proudly donated close to $500,000 in cash to various local organisations in need. Here are two organisations that have benefited greatly from Sharks’ generous contributions.

MONTROSE THERAPY & RESPITE SERVICES

GOLD COAST HOSPITAL FOUNDATION

Early 2016, Southport Sharks partnered with Montrose Therapy and Respite Services, one of Queensland’s oldest profit-for-purpose charities that specialise in providing support for people with disability. Through funds raised from the Community Benefit Fund, Southport Sharks are the proud contributors of the ‘Our Getaway’ holiday home living area. Montrose provided Southport Sharks staff a tour of the impressive facilities located in Labrador prior the official launch on April 26 where Dean Bowtell completed a handover of raised funds.

Southport Sharks are proud to announce the nomination by the Gold Coast Hospital Foundation for the 2016 QCF Philanthropist of the Year Award. Southport Sharks work closely with the Gold Coast Hospital Foundation and have been making donations via the Community Benefits Fund since 2011. The nomination comes off the back of reaching an impressive $100,000 donation milestone earlier this year. Through these generous donations, Southport Sharks have funded various pieces of equipment throughout the hospitals Children’s Department.

2016 DONAT ION TALLY We thank you for your generosity!

ITALIAN MI

DID YOU KNOW? The first tomatoes to make it to Italy were brought by the Spanish Conquistadors from South America in the mid-sixteenth century.

PAGE 10

NESTRONE The origin of Minestrone soup dates back to the late Roman Republic where the Italian diet was vegetarian based by necessity.

The expansion of Rome meant the introduction of new flavours and staple ingredients, and with that Minestrone

became a heartier meal including a wider variety of vegies and herbs, potatoes and various meats.

Today, there is no set recipe for Minestrone.

The method is open to interpretation, so feel free to put your own spin on it and create a new family favourite this winter!

RECIPE: 2 bacon rashers roughly chopped

1L beef, chicken or vegetable stock

2 carrots peeled and chopped

1 can red kidney beans

2 celery sticks chopped

3 roma tomatoes chopped

1 onion diced

1 cup fusilli pasta or rice

2 russet or desiree potatos, peeled and chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

2 garlic cloves

Fresh parsley, basil and oregano

METHOD: 1. Cook meat thoroughly, add vegies, garlic and basil in the same saucepan and stir to combine. Cook on high heat, uncovered, stirring for 5 mins.

2. Add stock, beans and tomatoes, cover and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to mediumlow. Simmer, covered and stir occasionally over 30 mins or until vegies are tender.

3. Increase heat to high and add pasta or rice and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally until pasta is al dente or rice is cooked. Season with salt and pepper and ladle into serving bowls and sprinkle with fresh herbs.

RED RED

DID YOU KNOW? The custom of bumping glasses with a “cheers� came from old Rome where they used this method to make sure no one was trying to poison the other (bumping glasses makes the drink spill from one cup to the other).

WINE Italian food and red wine goes hand in hand. But as we are not all certified sommeliers, sometimes we need a little help in our red wine selection. Here’s a simple guide to some of the most popular reds and what meals they work best with.

SHIRAZ Shiraz has aromas and flavours of wild black fruit such as blackcurrant with overtones of black pepper spice and roasting meat. Also known as Syrah, Shiraz goes perfectly with steak, beef, wild game or stews and is described as hearty and spicy, being the deepest and darkest red with intense flavour. For a rich and rounded taste, try the Pepper Jack Shiraz, 2014 from Barossa Valley, SA. This wine has fine tannins, lots of weight and complexity with a great finish.

MERLOT Merlot is soft to drink and is often described as the introductory wine for “new red wine drinkers”. It is perfectly paired with any meal, with typical scents including blackcherry, plums and herbs. For a merlot with a robust and round texture, try the Matua Hawkes Bay, 2014 from Matua Valley, NZ. The colour is vibrant red with raspberry, plum and spice aromas, which is paired with a palate full of berry and well integrated oak flavours.

CABERNET SAUVIGNON Cabernet Sauvignon is widely accepted as one of the world’s best and most popular varieties. It goes perfectly with red meat and is very full bodied, as it’s rich with currant qualities and notes of bell peppers and vanilla. For a delicious and bold choice, try Taylors Cabernet Sauvignon, 2014 from Clare Valley, SA. This is a unique blend with lashings of raspberry and blackberry jam flavours, without excess oak.

All wines mentioned are included in Carmody’s Restaurant & Bar menu and available for purchase in Fins Cellar.

In this issue of Bite we would like to show our appreciation to a particular team member that exemplifies qualities of honesty, team work and high performance. This is our Duty Manager, Trent Maloney.

With a background working in clubs and international hotels, Trent commenced employment with Southport Sharks in February 2008 in the role of a Bar Attendant. In 2009 Trent undertook a Certificate IV in Frontline Management. This qualification provided him with strong skills for leading a team and by 2010 Trent had secured a position of Team Leader at Southport Sharks.

Trent’s passion for learning and leading people has always been evident. Throughout 2011, Trent, along with a number of other Managers, successfully completed a Diploma of Management with the support and funding by Southport Sharks.

5 MINUTES WITH TRENT: WHY DO YOU LOVE WORKING AT SHARKS?

I love being part of a sporting club and what that represents, supporting football from the grass roots and seeing the club support the community.

A great part of my role is being able to interact with patrons and staff out on the floor and achieve positive outcomes. I have always loved being part of the club and having the opportunity to develop and appreciate the support I have received.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE DRINK/COCKTAIL/SNACK/ MEAL AT SHARKS?

I have always loved trying a new beer; Mountain Goat Ale and Big Head are great!

WHAT DO YOU DO IN YOUR SPARE TIME?

I love spending time with my twin 15yr old daughters, taking them shopping or out for a nice dinner is always great. I also love spending time on the Broadwater fishing or relaxing on my day off.

In 2012 he was appointed to the role of Duty Manager and decided to take his education to the next level, studying at Southern Cross University to receive a Bachelor of Business in Hospitality Management, majoring in Gaming.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND QUALIFICATIONS: Certificate IV in Frontline Management – 2009

Trent has a special interest in ensuring Southport Sharks effectively communicates with our younger members in an effective way. Trent has been instrumental in introducing the new Team App for staff while keeping his team up to date on all the promotions occurring throughout the club.

Promoted to Team Leader – 2010 Diploma of Management - 2011 (Funded by Sharks) Appointed Duty Manager - 2012 Completed study at SCU, Bachelor of Business in Hospitality Management - 2016

SHARKS EVENTS CENTRE HOSTS

RAW: TREND 2016

PAGE 28

The Gold Coast is full of diverse and talented artists, performers, designers and more. RAW is the culmination of these talented individuals, a unique event that aims to promote networking and showcases our amazingly creative Gold Coast community in its freshest form.

RAW launched in 2009 and was introduced to Australia in 2012. Moving forward 4 years, RAW has grown into a fun and alternative way for artists to showcase both to their local community and the global stage. RAW currently operates in over 60 cities across the United States, Australia, Canada and the UK. TREND was the latest RAW instalment at the Gold Coast and was hosted in the Sharks Events Centre on May 5th. Bright and bold was the trending theme, with the President’s Room adorned in colour and pizazz from various prints, canvases, body-art, jewellery, photography and more!

There were many stand-out exhibits which included DRIFT by clever Broadbeach couple Brooke and Josh who create coastal themed homewares with a cool twist using natural elements. Tahira was another notable mention with her incredible live body art displays as was the brightly coloured and bold canvases showcased by Saturar. Expansive and impressive photography was also on display by the talented Tweed Coast local, Ryan Folwer.

It was an inspirational evening where the Sharks Events Centre was gleaming with the array of vast talent from humble and talented beings. Southport Sharks were proud to host this event for RAW. Local artists are encouraged to submit their work for consideration to be a part of the upcoming show hosted in the Events Centre on the 4th August.

Submissions can be made at www.rawartists.org/goldcoast

Slugging it out for hours at the gym and not seeing the results you want? Why not switch things up and try HIIT. HIIT or high-intensity interval training is a training technique in which you give all-out 100% effort through quick and intense bursts of exercise.

HERE ARE THREE REASONS TO TRY HIIT STYLE TRAINING:

This is then following by short, sometimes active recovery periods. This type of training technique keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in less time.

Increased Metabolism EPOC speeds up metabolic rates and boosts metabolism for up to 48 hours after a complete HIIT routine

High intensity workouts create oxygen shortage, causing the body to ask for more oxygen during recovery. This after burn effect is referred to as the Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) and is the reason why intense exercise helps burn more fat and calories than regular aerobic and steady-state workouts.

Quick and Convenient Most HIIT workouts are 30 minutes or less!

TRY HIIT AT THE FITNESS CENTRE Sharks Health and Fitness offer two specialised HIIT style classes:

1.

2.

No Equipment= no worries!

HIIT workouts generally use only body weight to focus on getting the heart rate up

3.

METAFIT, a 30 minute non choreographed, body weight workout

2016 SEASON

Football Report

One of our main focus areas for 2016 is improving the relationship between the senior and junior football clubs. In conjunction with junior President Chris Harris, the senior club is now investing in our massive junior base. There are many future AFL Stars currently playing in the Southport juniors and we are working on fast tracking their development.

In February, 9 senior players attended the U13, U15 & U17 pre-season camp at Tallebudgera, training on the Saturday then holding a very informative Q&A session. Over Easter, the senior club ran a coaching seminar for our

junior coaches, with 12 coaches giving up their time on Good Friday to improve the club’s alignment of coaching philosophies.

Before each senior bye, senior players are allocated to assist each junior team with their training, something that the junior players love, with the senior boys passing on some valuable experience. Hopefully we will see many of our junior stars progress through the ranks and into our NEAFL Team!

Q&A WITH A SHARK

Dyson Budarick’s competitive nature has put the midfielder in good stead in the early parts of his career. The talented 18 year old has had a jam packed 2015 and making his mark throughout the 2016 NEAFL with the Southport Sharks. Here’s a bit more about Dyson.

WHAT ARE YOU STUDYING AND WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS?

I am currently studying a Bachelor of Business at Griffith University on the Gold Coast. My goals are obviously to play footy at the highest level but to get the most out of my education and study. I think it’s important to learn new skills and information in an ultimate attempt to be successful.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING AFL AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A MEMBER OF THE SOUTHPORT SHARKS TEAM?

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE TYPE OF TRAINING?

I have been playing AFL since I was about four or five and I have been with the Sharkies for two years now.

I was listed last year but was busy with state football (I have been 100% with Southport since early 2016).

I enjoy training once pre-season has finished. This training is purely focused on skills.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE MEAL OR DRINK?

Mexican food really does it for me!

WHAT IS YOUR TRAINING SCHEDULE LIKE AND HOW DO YOU FIT IN WORK/UNIVERSITY COMMITMENTS?

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PAST TIME/WHAT DO YOU DO FOR FUN WHEN NOT PLAYING FOOTY?

Griffith have been incredible, helping me mould my timetable around my football commitments.

Fortunately not many classes clash with football but it is still something I have to manage very diligently.

When I’m not playing football I enjoy fishing or spending time at the beach.
