One of our long-time major sponsors, The Burwood Inn (affectionately known as The Zoo of course), recently changed hands and we were keen to get to know the new faces behind this wonderful establishment.

John Palmieri (pictured right) is the Burwood’s proud new owner. Newcastle born and bred AND former Greens player (in the 70’s and 80’s), John has a strong connection to the Merewether community and is pleased to be continuing the Burwood’s major sponsorship of the club. Look out for John donning the green at our games this year.

Sandra and Tony Dart (pictured left) are the new publicans of the Burwood. Originally from the Northern Rivers of Grafton, the Dart’s have a massive 38 years on the board in the pub game! With 25 years in the Newcastle / Hunter Valley region including stints at Greta, Bradford (Maitland) and more recently Wallsend.

Pub Philosophy: always remain heavily involved in the local community and especially through sport. They are very excited to be supporting the Greens along with other strong sporting clubs such as the Merewether Women’s Soccer Club.

Thursday nights will remain $15 snitty and a beer night for all greens members, which is a great chance to show support outside the weekends.

We look forward to seeing John, Sandra and Tony during the 2019 season!
