Commemorating the Legends

This day isn't just about the present; it's about paying homage to the legends who have shaped our club's history. The Western Clydesdales will proudly don a heritage jersey, paying tribute to the 1984 squad that competed in the Winfield State League and triumphed over the touring international England side. These match-worn jerseys will be auctioned off, with all proceeds going towards the Western Clydesdales Community Foundation.

 

 

Moreover, we will be celebrating the remarkable centenary of the 1924 Clydesdales side's victory over the touring English team right here in Toowoomba, a milestone that highlights the enduring spirit and excellence of our club.

 

Supporting Our Community

As part of our commitment to giving back, the Western Clydesdales Community Foundation will conduct a 50-50 raffle, offering participants the chance to win a guaranteed minimum prize of $500. Your support in this endeavor will enable us to continue making a positive impact within our community.

 

A Weekend of Festivities

The celebrations extend beyond Sunday's matches, with a special race day set to take place at the Clifford Park Turf Club on Saturday 15th June. It's a weekend dedicated to honoring all those who have proudly represented the Western Clydesdales over the years, bringing together past players, supporters, and enthusiasts alike for a memorable occasion.
