Last Saturday marked the first day of Greenies Grommets for 2019.  We are proud to be in our third consecutive year with 98 registered grommets and two great sponsors – PRD Nationwide and GoKindy.

Grommets is a fantastic program where young boys and girls ranging from 2 – 7 years of age learn the basic fundamentals of rugby through fun ball games and activities as well as learning how to interact with other children in a fun family environment.  

It’s great to see Merewether locals who have not necessarily been part of the club before come down and get involved.  Equally it’s fantastic to see former greens players bring their children down to become part of the strong community spirit that the Greens offers.  

The Grommets are lucky to have involvement from the likes of Merewether Carlton Seniors legends Jayson Strachan, Billy Dunn, Chicky Sykiotis and Dylan Smouha leading the way. 

Similar to last year, we will split the program into 2 x 5 week blocks to coincide with school terms. Blocks will be:
Term 1 4/05/2019 to 1/06/2019
Term 2 27/07/2019 to 24/08/2019

One registration will cover grommets for both 5 week blocks and there will be no additional costs for Term 2. All grommets receive a jersey, shorts and a water bottle.
