Shout out to the 200th man Pete Murray for 3 goals in his milestone game

🚨 MILESTONE GAME 🚨

Pete moved to the club from Albany in 2010 and never looked back! A few MVP’s, all stars, grand final wins, and winning coaching gigs later, Pete has become quite the legend. He had a few years off and we are so glad he has come back, as we love watching him play! Thanks for choosing us Pete, have a great game today ❤️🖤

❤️🖤 SPONSOR APPRECIATION — HERRING’S COASTAL PLUMBING & GAS FITTING 🖤❤️

A huge thank you to Herring’s Coastal Plumbing & Gas Fitting for their incredible and continued support of the Rovers-Cardinals Hockey Club! 🕷️🏑

While Herring’s have proudly stepped up as a Major Sponsor for the past two years, their support of our club goes back many years before that — and we are incredibly grateful to have such a loyal local business behind the Redbacks. ❤️

Their generous partnership has helped us to:
👕 Provide our players with new uniforms
🏑 Upgrade equipment across the club
💰 Keep our fees as low as possible, making hockey more accessible for our members and families

You can see Herring’s proudly displayed on the back of our Women’s A Reserve uniforms, and we couldn’t be prouder to carry their name with us! 🙌

Sponsors like Herring’s play such an important role in keeping community sporting clubs like ours thriving, and their long-term commitment means more to us than we can say.

Please help us return the support — head over to Herring’s Coastal Plumbing & Gas Fitting, give their page a like and show them some Redbacks love! ❤️🖤

Thank you, Herring’s, for continuing to be such a valued part of the Rovers-Cardinals family! 🕷️

This weeks and last weeks results ❤️🖤🏑
