2023 Gala Reunion Wrap Up

What a great day our annual Gala reunion was last Saturday 15th July. We welcomed back more than 100 past players and officials to North to celebrate no less than seven club premierships from 1963, 1973, 1983, 1993 and 2013.

The atmosphere in the room was amazing as old friends reunited and stories tall and true were told. Perhaps the highlight of the day was down in the rooms after the game, when everyone joined our Senior Footballers to sing the song after an impressive win over Ballarat Swans.


Not to be complacent with one rendition, the “old boys” sang a second time with gusto, much to the delight of the players. If you haven’t seen the video, you can watch it here. Make sure you sing along!
