💚 Thank You to Our Incredible Volunteers 💚

GPUFC is run entirely by volunteers who dedicate countless hours both on and off the field to keep our club running.

From coaches, team managers and committee members— your time, effort and commitment do not go unnoticed.

Quite simply, our club wouldn’t exist, and our players wouldn’t be able to take to the field each week, without our amazing volunteers.

Thank you for everything you do for the GPUFC community. We appreciate each and every one of you! ⚽👏

3 cheers for our football volunteers! ⚽

This National Volunteer Week, let’s celebrate the legends behind the game. The coaches, committee members, helpers and community champions who make football happen across the Territory.
