Wests Tigers are inviting members and fans to come and meet the players on Thursday night in Campbelltown, ahead of the team's Round 14 match against Manly.
A bumper matchday is being planned for Members Appreciation Round on Sunday and there is quite a bit happening this week in the local area as well.
The team will be in Campbelltown from dawn 'til dusk on Thursday, juggling training sessions with community appearances.
Wests Tigers office staff and the community team will also be spending plenty of time in the southwest this week.
The team is aiming to bounce back after its last start loss to South Sydney and will be under the control interim of head coach Brett Kimmorley for the first time.
Thursday's first engagement will be early in the morning when James Tamou, Luciano Leilua and Luke Garner team up with members of Australia’s Wheelchair Rugby League team at a school’s clinic in Narellan Vale.
Next up the team will hit local Campbelltown gym Club Lime for a strength session. Then it's time for lunch, a team meeting, and the main field session for the week at Campbelltown Sports Stadium in the afternoon.
Fans wanting to meet the players can do so on Thursday night at Macarthur Square. The whole squad will be in attendance from 6.30pm until 8pm signing autographs and giving out the club’s 2022 team poster.
Cody the Cub has told us he'll also be there if any of our younger brigade fancy a photo.
If you're planning on coming along to meet the players on Thursday night, you might as well enter the draw to WIN a signed jersey!
