Swans Season Launch – Thursday 29th March

All Swans supporters are invited to join the players and coaching staff at the club’s WAFL Season Launch at 7pm Thursday 29^th March in the Main Bar at Steel Blue Oval, Bassendean.

Arrive early if you like because the doors will open at 5pm for the club’s weekly Thursday Night Supporters Night. Music duo ‘Shades of Indigo’ will entertain as guests arrive and for only $15 you can enjoy either a Parmi and Pint or Steak Burger and Pint. 

All Senior and Colts men’s players will be in attendance along with the Football Department. Master of Ceremony and ABC sports presenter Clint Wheeldon will be in charge as all players will be presented with their playing guernsey.

All current club members in attendance have a chance to win the weekly jackpot cash prize of $1,300 by just being present. That’s correct! The opportunity to win $1,300 cash by being a current member and being present at the time of the draw. The free draw will take place at just after 7pm and the lucky member’s name drawn must be present to claim the cash. There’s also the weekly Chase the Ace competition.

The Player Auction will follow the guernsey presentation. Senior and Colts players have been allocated into 15 groups. Refer below for the player groups and the Player Auction rules and regulations.

All friends and family are welcome. Any further queries please contact the club.

Player Auction Rules

By purchasing a player group, you are in the running to receive a cash dividend each week. The dividend remitted will depend on the amount of cash in the pool. So take up the challenge, have some fun, and become the proud owner of a group of Swans players in 2018. It is the ultimate test of your ability to ‘spot’ some talent!

This year there will be one Best on Ground selected in each of the Colts, Reserves and League teams each week. So the best case scenario, to receive the maximum weekly dividend, would be if you have all three Best on Ground players (Colts, Reserves and League) in your group.

Prize Money

The formula for calculating the prize money is as follows – 60% of money raised at the auction will be paid back to purchasers as a cash dividend. 35% of this money will be allocated to the League prize pool, 15% to the Reserves pool and 10% to the Colts pool. The remaining 40% will go to the club to support its annual fundraising target.

Points to Remember

• The Player group you purchase is yours for the full 18 Swan Districts home and away games during the 2018 WAFL season.
• There are three different cash dividends each week (1 League, 1 Reserves and 1 Colts). All dividends will be distributed at the end of the season.
• The weekly Best on Ground in the League team will be the player selected by the West Australian and published the Monday following the game. The Reserves and Colts Best on Ground players will be selected by the respective match committee and will be published on the club’s website each week, along with a group leader board.
• Payment by the successful bidder is required within 7 days of the auction.
