The Rosny site that will soon become home to the new Tasmanian Football Club High Performance Centre is one of several community locations that will host the launch of Tasmania’s AFL team.
Charles Hand Park will join the club’s official launch venues after tickets to the exclusive Theatre Royal event sold out in just minutes.
The unveiling of the team’s colours, name, logo and jumper will take place from 5:45pm on Monday, March 18.
“A Tasmanian AFL team is well overdue and there is an air of excitement building … I’m sure this will be a fantastic event where the community can come together to celebrate the launch of our AFL and AFLW teams,” Clarence Mayor Brendan Blomeley said.
“Having Tasmania’s AFL team based in Clarence is an exciting opportunity and game changing for our city, opening a wide range of possibilities for the surrounding businesses in Rosny and Bellerive, Rosny College and future developments.”
“It also provides Clarence City Council the opportunity to design the Rosny Parkland and Charles Hard Park precinct around the Centre using the principles of the City Heart Plan to build something truly wonderful for our community, that will be a source of pride for generations.”
Attendees are encouraged to bring picnic rugs, fold-out seating and their own food and drink.
