"We understand that many families have experienced difficulties over the last couple of years due to the pandemic and natural disasters and we are committed to ensuring that the region's largest sport remains affordable, fun and safe."

"Newcastle Permanent's support continues to ensure that our game remains accessible and young players start the season with a ball at their feet."

"Football is such a great game and we're excited to play a part in making it more accessible to families across northern NSW. Be that through fee support, new equipment or in recognising the thousands of volunteers who generously give their time to their local clubs every weekend," Juergens said.

"Since 2008, Newcastle Permanent has provided more than 110,000 free footballs to entry level players, with a further 10,000 balls ready to go out this season. We can't wait to see the kids hit the pitch with them this year."
