The Tasmania Football Club has attracted 150,000 founding Devils members just days after officially unveiling the team’s name, colours and jersey.
Executive Director Kath McCann thanked every person who has become a member, saying that each was now an integral part of the club’s unfolding story.
“150,000 Founding Members tells us how broad the support is for the Tasmania Devils,” she said.
“Our Founding member community is the backbone of our club and shared dream.”
“The widespread support for our club and general buzz around Tasmanian football since Monday’s launch has been amazing.”
“It has provided a reminder of what footy clubs are all about, and that’s the community.”
She said the club was now working hard to produce and dispatch founding member packs.
“We are currently busily printing stickers and stuffing member envelopes to get your packs delivered to those who have signed up,” she said.
“Soon we will have official Club merchandise on sale, all of which will be available to Founding Members only. We are so looking forward to building our Club with you all.”
