At OIGFC we strongly support and reiterate the VAFA’s words:
The thoughts of the VAFA community are with everyone impacted by the tragic events that took place in Bondi yesterday, especially the victims and their families.
We thank the first responders, medical teams, and brave people who selflessly protected and cared for those in need
We proudly stand in support of the members of our Ajax FC and the broader Jewish community during this incredibly difficult time.

Training & Christmas BBQ wrap up 🎄🙌🏼
Fantastic work at our women’s training session and great to see this group out on the track before coming together to celebrate at the BBQ. We’re so excited to see where this momentum leads into 2026 💪
A huge thank you to our favourite butcher Brenta Meats for generously supplying the meat for our delicious barbecue — well worth the trip to Station Street, Fairfield for your produce @brentameats
Thank you to everyone who came down to our Christmas BBQ to wrap up the year and catch up before the festive break. 2025 has been a season to be proud of.
A MASSIVE thank you to our sponsors for their continued support, making this season possible and driving our club forward.
and thank you so much to our coaches, volunteers, committee members, players, club members and the entire OIGFC community — from cheering on the sidelines, sponsoring players, donating raffle prizes, attending Chelsworth lunches, organising our famous afternoon tea, and helping create such a positive club culture. We couldn’t do it without you 🤎🤍
