There are only two kinds of people in the world; the Irish and those who wish they were Irish. So let me introduce you to the very best Irish woman to grace our doorway at Casuarina Cougars. Georgina is one of the kindest women you will ever meet and as a junior mum at Casuarina Cougars she was always on the side line at games supporting her son Tadhg and her husband Terry (junior coach) and laughing on the sidelines with the girls. Even though Tadhg moved onto other sports she still had so much love for the club and continued to support our events over the last couple of years. At the end of last year Georgina and her family were living their best lives. Her beautiful children were thriving in the local sporting community and after many years of working for others as a nutritionist / naturopath Georgina was running a successful business Territory Wellness Health Food Store. Nothing could have prepared them for the moment that came next. When Georgina was diagnosed with breast cancer she sadly had to close down her business to concentrate on her health and her family. We know this would have been a heart breaking decision to make but knowing how devoted she is to those who she loves she wouldn't of had it any other way. Family always comes first for Georgina and Terry. When we heard about Georgina's diagnosis we knew we wanted to help in any way we could so this year we are dedicating our ladies day celebration to Georgina and her family. Despite her diagnosis we continue to watch Georgina live each day as a blessing. Ladies day is happening on Saturday 25th February at NTRU and you can find more details about it on our website www.casuarinacougars.com.au Its going to be a great day full of delicious food, drinks and lots of ways to help raise money towards our fundraising efforts for Georgina including raffles and some of our junior members have stepped up to have their much loved mullets and curls styled by Darwins own Ron the Barber. Please support our event by donating if you can. You can follow all of the updates over on our facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/Casuarinacougarsnt/

Meet Tore. A third generation Cougar who joined the club as a young cub and is now one of our shining stars in under 16s. He has a big fishing trip planned on ladies day but he wasn’t going to let that stand in the way of joining the rest of the boys to fundraise for Georgina. Tore will be chopping off his hair next week surrounded by his team mates and Casuarina Cougars family. Support Tore and the other boys in their fundraising efforts by making a donation through their page. People will also be able to make donations on the day through at our ladies day event.

Meet Nayt Phillips. He may be one of the smallest on the team but that doesn’t stop him from making an impact on the field. Nayt loves his curls and so does his Mum and Dad but on Saturday 25th February at Ladies Day he will be joining Jackson and having his curls cut off by Ron Backyard Barber Darwin When asked why he wanted to do it this is what he said. I am chopping my hair because I wanted to do something to support my Cougar teammates Mum, Georgina. Mums are so special and do everything for their kids.

Jackson Toms is well known throughout our club. Playing for the club for a number of years now he has represented the club as part of the NT junior rugby team and has a bright future ahead of him. Jackson played rugby with Georgina’s son Tadhg and was part of the team when Terry was coach. Jackson also became friends with Georgina’s daughter Pania through school. After hearing about Georgina’s fight he made no hesitation in deciding that he will shave off his first love “his mullet” in support for Georgina and what a better way to do this as a fundraiser. Jackson along with some others boys from our club who we will introduce later this week will be having their hair shaved/styled by former Casuarina junior Ron Backyard Barber Darwin at our Ladies Day Event on Saturday 25th February. From a club perspective we thing our juniors are amazing for jumping on board with our fundraising and we have set up a page for the boys to accept donations for those who would like to support them or unable to make it to the event. All funds raised will go to Georgina and her family. Tickets for ladies day can be purchased here: https://www.casuarinacougars.com.au
