Maitland Saints Australian Football Club

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland—Minister for Roads, and Minister for Regional Transport)—Congratulations to the Maitland Saints Australian Football Club on a fantastic season launch at Telarah Bowling Club on March 18. It was an inspiring evening that set the tone for an exciting season of change and progress. The club celebrated this milestone by honouring its heritage with the presentation of life membership awards to Foundation President Duane Roy and the dedicated premiership player, president, board member, and tireless volunteer, Colin Carroll. A major highlight of the night was the unveiling of the new club crest—a bold symbol that truly captures the spirit of the Maitland Saints family. This crest represents a fresh start as the club embarks on significant upgrades at Max McMahon Oval. With the demolition of the old change rooms and the commencement of $3.6 million new facilities, including modern change rooms, toilets, a canteen, and a multi-purpose hall, the Saints are poised for a bright future. Congratulations to the Maitland Saints on an outstanding season launch. Your passion and commitment continue to inspire and unite our community as you step confidently into this new era.
