New Sponsorship Deal 

The club committee has embarked on a new fund raising scheme for both the senior and junior players. All it involves is for you to do your grocery shopping at New World Rototuna and use your FLY BUYS card. New World Rototuna has agreed to pay the club 5% of your till receipt in donations to the club (and you still get to keep your FLY BUYS points).

What we need you to do as club members is to collect as many Fly Buys numbers as possible and encourage people to buy their groceries at New World Rototuna. The club will collect the numbers and set up a data base at New World so they can record the receipt amounts and pay the club accordingly.

The money being raised will help the club to develop our young players and to ensure the club can help to support all of our senior players.
