PREMIERSHIP CUPS ON TOUR | Community Bank Ferntree Gully

What a fantastic year for one of our newest sponsors to jump on board!
In 2023 we welcomed FTG Community Bank as a GOLD sponsor of our club. Apart from much needed sponsorship funds the bank played a big part in the development and purchasing of our new hoodies as well as Grand Final banners for our junior teams.
 

If you are looking for a change from the big 4 or just wanting some financial advice, Community Bank Ferntree Gully can help you pick the right solutions for all your banking needs.

Thank you, Eve, Tina, and the team at Community Bank FTG for your enthusiasm and support in 2023.
