The Cooma Cats have a new Number One fan – the Cooma-Monaro Shire Council.
Cooma-Monaro Shire Council’s General Manager John Vucic accepted the Cats’ “Number One Membership Ticket” from Cooma Cats’ Club President Dave Paterson at the Council’s offices on Monday.
The awarding of the Cats’ Number One Ticket to the Council is part of the club’s reinvigorated campaign to develop and enhance its links with the local community.
“We’ve been working hard over the past 18 months to reinforce the club’s profile as a family-focused, community-based and professionally-based football club which everyone across the Monaro and Snowy Mountains – regardless of which ever football code they follow – can be proud,” Mr Paterson said.
“Consequently, when we launched the Cooma Cats’ Social Membership scheme earlier this year, it seemed logical that we offer our ‘Number One Ticket’ to Council who represent everyone in the area.
“And having Mr Vucic – on behalf of the Council - accept this offer is greatly appreciated by everyone involved with the Cooma Cats. It’s is something we really value, and we are very aware of the responsibilities inherent in the new relationship,” Mr Paterson said.
Mr Vucic has honoured to accept the Cats’ Number One ticket.
“Our Council is very conscious of our local sporting teams and was honoured to accept the Number One Ticket offered by the Cooma Cats AFL Club,” Mr Vucic said.
“It’s important that we support our community at all times and I’m a great fan of AFL and will be looking forward to attending as many home games as I can to show our support,” he said.
The Club has launched the Cats’ Social Membership Scheme so everyone interested in the team can officially join the Cats on their journey to bring AFL football to the region.
Mr Paterson praised the support the Council had given the club in recent years, particularly in relation to the on-going development and maintenance of the Cats’ home ground at Snowy Oval and the upgrading of the lighting.
“We have a strong relationship with Council who have always been responsive to our needs, so it was a very simple choice for us when considering who we should offer the “Number One Ticket” to,” Mr Paterson said.
“And like the Council, we as a club are committed to providing the people of the region with an outlet for healthy living and community engagement – so the synergies between our two organisations are easy to see and harness for everyone’s benefit.
To symbolise this relationship, Mr Paterson presented Mr Vucic a framed, original Cooma Cats’ Jumper and the Number One Membership Ticket for display in the Council Offices.
“We hope the display of the jumper and ticket will serve as a simple reminder to everyone across region that the Cooma Cats are proud to represent them in the Canberra AFL competition, and in turn, that they can be proud of the club for the way it goes about its business,” Mr Paterson said.
