Merchandise Update


Merchandise orders are currently in production, and we expect they will be ready for pick up after Easter, prior to the season commencing. We will notify you all when pre-orders are ready for pick up.

Extra stock will be available for purchase at Toorak Park for purchase on training nights and we have some exciting new inclusions to come as the season commences.

Welcome Back to Toorak Park
 

Thank you to all those that made it along on Sunday to celebrate the move back to TP. It was a wonderful site to see the kids having a kick and parents catching up.
