GET READY FOR THE DROP

THE Torquay Football Club, Cricket Club and Netball Club have teamed up again for the third Torquay Tiger Drop, which will be held tomorrow (February 22) from 5.30-11.30pm.

Entry is free to the family fun day, and tickets to the Tiger Drop itself are $100 each. After 1,000 golf balls are dropped from a helicopter, the three closest to the pin in the middle of Spring Creek Reserve will win $15,000, $3,500 and $1,000, respectively (officials are pictured here measuring the nearest golf ball to the pin last year). Entertainment organised throughout the night will include bands, children’s activities, jumping castles and food trucks. To buy tickets and for more
information, head to torquaytigers.com/ event/tiger-drop-2019. The major fundraiser for all three clubs will help fund new rooms for the netball club and improve the football and cricket club’s facilities.
