Port Melbourne Football Club
Nina TAYLOR (Albert Park) (13:24): I was really excited last night because I was at the Port Melbourne Football Club season launch for 2025 – VFL and VFLW. We had players, parents and supporters and of course the whole exec, and there was a beautiful jumper presentation. Each player gets up and is able to be properly acknowledged ahead of a fantastic season ahead. I asked one of the co-captains, Olivia Barton, ‘Olivia, what’s the best thing to do to support the club?’ The best thing, she said, is for people to buy a ticket, come along to the games, buy some snacks and enjoy beautiful community football. It was a really wonderful event, and I did share also that what is really great about it is not only that they are getting fit, there is discipline and all the great stuff that comes from being part of a football team but also that they bring community together. This is a gift in and of itself.
