On Saturday 22 June, the home of the Burdekin Canetoads hosted a vibrant event to remember for the Burdekin Rugby Union Ladies Day 2024.
The theme of the extravaganza was Partying into the Sunset, and over 160 ladies certainly followed suit, looking absolutely beautiful in their sunset tones, with Terzah Menzies taking out a $100 prize for being the best-dressed sunset! The ladies danced the night away with the talents of local musician, Megan Law staged into the night. In a special treat, the ladies enjoyed Slushies at Sunset by Tipsy Taps Co with Sarina, and Union’s very own old boys whipping up delicious daiquiris, showcasing their bartender skills throughout the event.
The charity jersey auction and raffles provided plenty of friendly competition among the ladies, along with an extraordinary live match of football with both men’s teams dominating North Ward with Reserves winning 80 – 0, and A Grade winning 55 – 0. Raffles were held throughout the event, with many lucky ladies walking away with amazing prizes as generously donated by 28 local businesses.
Half-time saw a hilarious display of comedic entertainment with a Relay Race showcasing the Reserve Grade Men’s abilities to run in ladies attire, wearing their best high heels to race their way through the field.
A successful celebration, the 2024 Canetoads Ladies Day saw the Women’s Jersey Fundraiser for the “Support the Girls” foundation raise an outstanding total exceeding $6,000, with the jerseys auctioned off at the event. Support the Girls works to empower vulnerable, disadvantaged, and isolated women, and girls, providing access to professionally fitted bras, essential products, and the support needed to lead healthy, and fulfilling lives. The Canetoads women’s team proudly wore the kit for their Ladies Day Game, shining bright, pretty in pink on the field.
“It was another successful weekend on the union home grounds, and we look forward to many more great, lively nights for our future home games,” expressed the event’s organisers Annie Best, and Caitlin Holmes.
