The club was able to raise $1000 for CanAssist through donations at the gate and sales at the canteen during the day.
CanAssist’s Olga Forner welcomed the donation with open arms.
“This is a terrific donation which will be used to help Griffith patients,” she said.
“It was a beautiful day, great game and ended up with a great result.”
Acting President of Yoogali FC, Joel Scarfo wanted to thank those who turned out to the game for their generosity.
“On a regular Sunday we would probably only get $300 max through the canteen,” he said.
“To be able to raise $1000 is just fantastic.”
Scarfo is hoping to do a similar event the next time the two Yoogali FC teams play each other.
