The 2019 Trans-Tasman Challenge brings together New Zealand and Australia, two rival sporting nations, as part of the 10th Winter Games NZ. New Zealand and Australia last met at the 2017 and 2018 Winter Games NZ. Each country has won the three-game series twice, New Zealand's Ice Blacks in 2009 and 2018 and Australia's Mighty Roos in 2011 and 2017.

    2021-22 AIHL Brisbane Sponsorship Packages COMMERCIAL IN CONFIDENCEaihlbrisbane.com.au ABOUT THE AIHL The Australian Ice Hockey League was formed 2000 and has since evolved into an 8-team national competition including teams from Sydney, Newcastle, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Each team play each other four times, twice at home and twice away with each team playing a total of 28 games a season which runs from April through to August each year. At the completion of the normal season the top four teams enter the AIHL Finals Weekend where the semi final is held with the grand final the following day. The winner of the Grand Final is awarded the Goodall Cup. There is also an All-Star Weekend held annually in June featuring Team North (CBR Brave, Newcastle Northstars, Sydney Bears and Sydney Ice Dogs) take on Team South (Adelaide Adrenaline, Melbourne Ice, Melbourne Mustangs and Perth Thunder) in a series of skills events and eventually competing in a “friendly” game at the end of the weekend. Ice hockey in Australia is fast becoming a household name with over 4700 registered players (IIHF 2020) and connections with leagues over the world including the National Hockey League (NHL) in Canada and USA, the sports reach doesn’t stop at our border. COMMERCIAL IN CONFIDENCE ABOUT AIHL BRISBANE While most major cities within Australia field an AIHL team, the state of Queensland has not had a competitive team since 2012. In an effort to bring the AIHL back to Queensland, AIHL Brisbane look to be the ninth team added to the competition by playing exhibition games as a provisional team in 2021, with the hope of securing acceptance into the league in 2022.

  • April 20 12 Newsle Tte R
    Foster Care Association of Victoria Celebrating 20 years of supporting Victorian carers www.fcav.org.au Protecting Victoria‟s Vulnerable Children Inquiry The Protecting Victoria‟s Vulnerable Children Inquiry Report was tabled in state parliament on 28 February 2012 by the Minister for Community Services, the Hon Mary Wooldridge. Comprising 90 recommendations, and a further 20 „list of findings and matters for attention‟, the report is a comprehensive and robust document. It outlines all elements of the child protection and vulnerable children sector, the current state of play, and the changes needed to meet and improve our response as a sector, community and state to the needs of vulnerable children in Victoria. Upon release of the report, The Age newspaper highlighted the growing „cost of care‟ referred to in the report. The article, detailed below, featuring our own Vice President, Tracey Cocks, clearly illustrated the need for improved funding approaches for foster, kinship and permanent carers in Victoria. We highlight further key recommendations on pages 6 and 7.
