OPPORTUNITIES

The Dandenong Southern Stingrays have appeared in 25 finals series in the 27 years

with 113 players drafted onto AFL club lists. In 2018 we still have 41 players on an

AFL list and second to Geelong Falcons in the most 200 AFL game players. Also in

2018 we have 2 AFL Captain’s in Nathan Jones Melbourne FC and Tom Lynch Gold

Coast FC, along with 4 Vice Captains. We also have numerous ex players that are

working in coaching or administrative roles within AFL clubs. In 2017 we added 2

draftees in the inaugural AFLW draft- both to Carlton. We were crowned Champions

and Premiers for the first time in 2018- only losing one game of football for the year!

We pride ourselves on achieving excellence in every aspect of our

Club both in our football programs and our social responsibilities.

The days of only having to pick players out of local football and

present them to the AFL recruiters are long gone. The charter and

responsibility of the Dandenong Southern Stingrays now

encompasses drug and alcohol awareness, learner driver

education, racism in society and sport, time management skills,

diet and nutrition programs, social and domestic violence

programs and a wellbeing program. These social programs filter

down from our TAC Cup Under 18 male and female teams, through

our staff into all of our underage programs. Every person works

within the club expecting excellence from our players and with

them taking these standards back with them into local football

communities.

This creates exciting opportunities for your business to become

part of our Club; to help expand our Club and its programs to new

levels and help our Club to continue to grow so we can maintain

and improve our current status.
