There is now $500 on offer for both nearest-the-pins in Friday’s shootout for both male and female, as well as $200 for the junior whose shot gets closest to the target.
And a new sponsor has come on board for the free, interesting and entertaining Sportsman’s Night on Saturday night.
Shaun (Magro) Whitechurch is jumping off the ground again, not as high, though, as former North Melbourne and Melbourne AFL player Shaun Smith.
“We are thrilled to announce that Shaun’s daughter and AFWL North Melbourne Amy will be one of the celebrities here on Saturday night,” Magro said.
Amy’s dad took that screamer of a mark in Brisbane AFL football. Former detective sergeant in underworld crimes Paul Dale will also be subject to Magro’s question/answer segment.
The first father-daughter pick in North Melbourne history, Amy Smith turned her back on a promising basketball career to pursue her AFLW dream.
A quiet achiever and a capable utility player who can own a wing or be used as a lockdown midfielder, Smith is among the best runners at the club and has improved with each year she's spent at Arden Street.
The Sportsman’s Night is free, with members of the public welcome. It will be a great night.
