    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. The cost of caring - $65,000 out of pocket Michelle Griffin, The Age, February 29, 2012 TRACEY Cocks knew it cost her more than she received from the state government to foster four young children, but she didn't realise just how much until the the state's inquiry asked her to calculate her out-of-pocket expenses. ''It was $65,000 a year,'' she says. ''After tax, after reimbursement. How are they going to get people to foster children if they realise they're going to be paying for it themselves?'' Ms Cocks and her partner took on their first foster child as a baby 5½ years ago, and now care for her three siblings also, ranging in age from nine to a baby.

  • US Footy Ten Year Commemorative Book
    US Footy Ten Year Commemorative Book The First Ten Years of Australian Rules Football in America. “For the good of the game, for the love of the game” USFOOTY United States Australian Football League A REAL USFOOTY THANKS TO President’s Report “If you dream it, you can do it.” Walt Disney Over ten years ago a group of ten Australians and Americans met in a barn in Indiana over a beer or two and dreamed about starting an Australian Rules Football League in the USA. From this gathering and the hard work of many, the USAFL celebrates its tenth year of operation. A dream became a reality and a game born in Australia is quickly establishing itself as a strong minor sport in the land of professional sport. Our tenth National Championships are being played in the city where the first game was played - Louisville, Kentucky. Our Championships have grown over the years from a small gathering of clubs to a significant number that produce economic benefits to the host club and city, but more importantly the gathering of teams is a chance to celebrate football and the league on an annual basis. If you haven’t been to the USAFL Championships you are missing a great celebration of grass roots sport. At these Championships we will celebrate those players, coaches, umpires and officials who have been integral to the success of the USAFL. We will remember past matches and past Championships. The stories will be told of those fantastic road trips and the characters that make being part of a football team one of the great experiences of life.
