Tonga is a small country in the South Pacific hopeful of attending their first International Cup in Melbourne next year. To help finance the trip, the Tonga Australian Football Association is raffling two AFL Grand Final tickets. Raffle tickets are AUD$10 each and the draw will take place on the 28 September, Grand Final eve. This realistically restricts entry to those in Australia only, and means that if the winner lives outside Victoria, they will need to organise a flight for Saturday morning. More information is available from the TAFA website. General donations or sponsorship to support the national side are also welcome, as without significant fundraising the team will struggle to make the journey. |
