CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES ‘EXPOSING YOUR BUSINESS TO NEW LEVELS’ 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. 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!
