ROUND 1 — THREE FROM THREE!

What a way to kick off the 2026 season — all three teams with the win against Morningside.

A great turnout and an unreal atmosphere on Oval 4, with the 45s, 35s, and Women’s teams all going back-to-back. Days like this are what our club is all about; footy, connection, and getting around each other.

Today was also played in memory of Brooke Day and our Club President’s father, who have both recently passed. A special day, and a powerful way to honour them, together, as a club

Huge effort from everyone involved and an incredible start to the season.

What a way to kick off the season.

Today’s launch at Northern Grounds Sunshine Coast was pretty special.
We announced the teams for the upcoming year: Men’s 35s, 45s, 55s and our Women’s 35s… and what a group we have at the Rayners! 🤍💙

We also continued the retirement of jersey #10 in honour of Marty Rayner; the name our club is built on. His name and honour is something we’ll always carry with us.

We are excited to see what the 2026 season brings us.

Let’s go Rayners!
