The Goulburn Rugby Club 150^th Anniversary Reunion Ball will cap off an extraordinary day and an extraordinary year for the Club.

Hosted at Veolia Arena, guests will be treated to a delectable three-course meal and there will be an impressive range of lucky door prizes.

It will be a night of glitz and glamour with Veolia Arena done up to the nines, and the dress code is formal for this event.

Rob Sheekey will emcee the night providing a few anecdotes and a bit of history to add context to the evening.

A special presentation will be made to this year’s new Life Members by women’s captain-coach Ash Mewburn and all Life Members present will join together for a group photo.

A video of greetings and messages to the club on this special occasion will be played and throughout the night reminders will be given to get those last bids in for the online auction which will close during the Ball.

With the formal portion of the night completed, you better have your dancing shoes on because in-demand Canberra band Something Like This will get those with dance in their pants on their feet, while others can take the well-earned opportunity to catch up and swap stories.

Taxis may be a bit scarce with other big events on in town that night, so a bus has been booked to get attendees home from Veolia Arena starting at Midnight. 

A rough running-sheet is listed below but there may be a few surprises along the way.

So what are you waiting for? If you’re part of the Goulburn Rugby Club’s rich history and family, including the club’s many supporters and sponsors over the years, or if you just like a sumptuous night out in fine style, get your tickets now.

Tickets can be booked on Eventbrite in Tables of 10 or you can contact Kelly Anable on 0418 638 853 to arrange individual seating.

In addition to the club’s current sponsors, especially major sponsor the Hibernian Hotel, the Goulburn Rugby Club would like to sincerely think the event sponsors Boyce Chartered Accountants, Ray White Real Estate, Panache Financial, House of Smoke and Fire, Raine and Horne Real Estate and the Australian Wool Network.
