GET ready for the new footy season, which kicks off on Thursday, March 22. Join the fun in the biggest and best Footy Tipping competition on the Bellarine by entering either on the clip board in the clubhouse foyer, or calling reception. For a $30 entry you are in the running for a minimum of $1,000 first prize (depending on entries, usually higher) to the highest tipster for the season, with cash prizes for the top six tipsters, and a weekly jackpot if you tip the card on any given week. The results of each round and progressive totals for every player are available after each round on the club website or on the noticeboard in the clubhouse. Footy knowledge or skill are definitely not a prerequisite for success!<\/p>\n
