Each year, the rivalry heats up as more than 150 passionate locals battle it out in the club’s hugely popular Footy Tipping Comp. The 2026 season is shaping up to be bigger than ever, and now is the perfect time to secure your place.

For just a $50 entry fee, tipsters receive a pot of beer, a glass of house wine or a soft drink every single week when they submit their tips. That’s around $150 in value across the season — making this competition an absolute no-brainer.

But let’s talk about what really gets the competitive juices flowing — the prize pool. The more participants who join, the bigger the winnings grow. Last year’s champion walked away with over $5,000 in first prize alone. Imagine calling the season perfectly and collecting a payday like that! Want in?

Getting involved couldn’t be easier. Simply see the friendly team at the main bar, and they’ll walk you through the process and get you registered in no time.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of one of the region’s most exciting competitions. Rally your mates, sharpen your tipping strategy and register today.
