The Deniliquin Rovers hosted a lively and laughter-filled Ladies Day in the clubrooms on Saturday, with around 50 women turning out for an afternoon of fun, fashion, and football.

Guests were treated to delicious nibbles, refreshments, and signature blue cocktails, all while soaking up the club atmosphere and cheering on the Rovers in style.

The ‘a touch of blue’ theme brought a sea of colour and flair to the room, with Anita Burgess taking out the best dressed prize for her eye-catching sparkly outfit.

Adding to the fun was a senior football sweep with prizes handed out for a range of quirky and traditional categories, including first goal, last goal, 50m penalties and best on ground.

The coveted Ladies’ Player of the Day vote went to Rowan Frazer, who impressed on the field.

A raffle - supported by generous donations from local businesses, Rovers netballers, and supporters - raised $700 for Deniliquin Can Assist. The club chopped in another $300 to bring the donation to $1000.

Raffle winners included Hannah Pollard, Bell McIlwain, Alex Glowrey, Sandra Quinlan, Sienna Jenkins, Millie Joice, Hannah Ford, Dawn McCulloch, Rebecca Flisher, Kellie Collisson, Anita Burgess, Kate Chandler, Cara McCulloch, Remy Muirhead, and Olivia Wells.

The afternoon also included a special birthday celebration for Rovers netballer Millie Joice, with a cake and chorus to mark the occasion.
