MEET THE MEMBERS MONDAY
Meet Dylan!
It all started when Trey (as seen last week) dragged his little brother along to watch a game of footy. One look at the Tiger Army and Dylan was hooked! He was at training the very next week and didn't waste any time pulling on the boots for his first game.
Now, he might not have the same size as his big brother, but what he lacks in height, he makes up for with plenty of determination. In just a few games this season, Dylan has already snagged his first goal—proof that you don't have to be the biggest player to make an impact!
We're wrapped to have you as part of the Tiger Army, Dylan!
We've got your plans for next weekend sorted!
How does footy by the beach sound? Join us next Saturday, 19 July, as we take on the Wilmington Bombers at Wrightsville Beach Park.
The action kicks off at 1:00 pm, and we can't wait to see you there! 🏉☀️

Solid numbers at Saturday morning training!
Great to have Connor back with the Tiger Army, and thanks to Rob for jumping in while you were in town!
We're hitting the road next weekend, and you can't beat footy by the beach in Wilmington. 🏉🏖️ Keep an eye on the page—we'll have all the details coming soon.
As always, a massive thanks to our sponsors, and for backing the Tigers. 🐯
A huge good luck to everyone playing in the Super Regionals today in Minneapolis....especially to our very own Erik, who will be representing the Tigers with the Chicago Swans. We'll be cheering you on from North Carolina!

Whoever ordered the tropical conditions for training tonight... thanks, we guess. 🥵☀️
Huge welcome to our newest Tiger Army recruits, Andy and Ayres (not pictured), who somehow survived their first session in the heat.
Thanks to our sponsors Hibernian Pub and BOLD Real Estate for supporting our club.
MEET THE MEMBERS MONDAY
Meet Trey!...or as he's better known around the club, 'Big Trey'. The nickname might sound intimidating, but behind the tough exterior is one of the biggest softies you'll meet.
Over the past few years, Trey has collected his fair share of injuries, but no matter what's been knocked, tweaked, or strapped up, he always finds his way back to the Tiger Army.
And because one Smith clearly wasn't enough, this year he recruited his brother Dylan to join the club too. We're lucky to have you in our Army Trey!
Happy 4th of July Tiger Army! 🇺🇸
Today, we celebrate freedom, community, and the spirit that brings us together both on and off the footy field. We've taken this weekend off training to enjoy everything that is great about this country.
Wishing everyone a safe and happy Independence Day filled with friends, family, and plenty of fun!
MEET THE MEMBERS MONDAY
Meet Josh!
There's no doubt you recognise Josh's face by now. Although he rocked up to training about six years ago not even knowing what AFL was, he's now one of the most familiar faces around the club.
A constant presence at training and on game days, Josh is also a valued member of the Tigers board. Not only is he a force on the footy field with his impressive ball skills, but he's also been instrumental in bringing an influx of new players to the club over the past few years.
We're incredibly lucky to have you as part of our Tiger Army, Josh. Thanks for everything you do for the club!
Day Two of the North Carolina Cup had it all. Three hard faught games of footy. Big marks. Heat. Tough contests. Heat. Injuries. Heat. A big crowd. Heat. First gamers. Heat. Pies and Sausage Rolls.
Tigers took out two great wins. But it was footy in North Carolina that was the biggest winner of the day! Big thanks to Wilmington Bombers Australian Rules Football Club and Charlotte Blue Heelers Australian Football Club for making the trip.
It was also great to have Wayne from Play Aussie Oscar from The Round Field and Kate from Lucky Larrikin
Well done to Jack on his first game in the yellow and black and congratulations to Peter, the winner of the hard hat. Thanks for the Tiger Army for coming out in force and for all of our first time supporters. We loved having you on the sidelines.
