In a collaborative effort on Tuesday, January 23rd, Tweed Seagulls teamed up with RedInc and PCYC Lismore, supported by NRL Development Officers, to successfully organise a School Holiday Clinic in Lismore. The program was enriched by the participation of Tweed Seagulls Development Coordinator Shaun Davison, Seagulls Head of Football David Penna, Seagulls Wellbeing Manager John Hutchinson, and Seagulls & Titans star Jaime Chapman, alongside Northern Rivers juniors Kharis Birney, Charlotte Day, and Noah Vakararawa.
The clinic made a lasting impression, with all participating children thrilled to receive Tweed Seagulls caps and packs from the NRL, NSWRL, and the Gold Coast Titans. This initiative was made possible through the generous support of Eximm, a valued partner of Seagulls in the Eximm Nest Community Programs.
Tweed Seagulls Community and Corporate Manager Brad Birney expressed satisfaction, stating “The day proved to be highly successful, enjoyed by both the kids and the adults in attendance. It was a great example of why collaboration works. Seagulls remains dedicated to utilising rugby league as a vehicle to strengthen connections within communities, instill crucial life skills, and contribute positively to the overall well-being of young individuals”.
Looking ahead, Tweed Seagulls aims to broaden the impact of such programs on the Northern Rivers through its Eximm Nest Community Programs. The objective is to utilise rugby league as a catalyst for building stronger community connections, imparting essential life skills, and enhancing the overall well-being of young individuals. Additionally, the goal is to inspire greater participation and involvement in rugby league, fostering a sense of community engagement and highlighting the positive impact of the sport.
