Paul, A keen magpies fan
"I wanted to play AFL but I have a heart condition. The Disability Trust took me to Canberra to visit the cardiologist who said I could do some light exercise so I started kicking the football in the park. Since my operation, I have joined the Merimbula diggers where I play as a utility player in reserve grade. I love the mateship and social aspect of playing."

I couldn’t be prouder of our teams. They are working with some of the most vulnerable people in our community going above and beyond to help them understand the pandemic, remain calm, stay busy and entertained. They are a very creative and amazing group.
