Kick Goals. Raise Funds. Keep families together
Your club's day of footy, fun and fundraising!
What is Goal-a-thon?
Goal-a-Thon is a high-energy sports fundraiser bringing local clubs together to kick goals for seriously ill kids. Raise funds, take kicks, score points—and make a real difference.
Choose a date that works across as many divisions of your club as possible—whether it’s a Community Day, End or Start of Season celebration, Family Fun Day, or another format that suits your community best.
To give your event the best chance of success, we recommend allowing at least 4 weeks for planning and preparation.
How it works
Fundraise
to earn kicks
Before event day, players from each age division set up their own online fundraising page. Then collect donations from family, friends, and local supporters!
Get kicking and
collect points
Each player must raise at least $100 before the event to qualify. This gives them 10 kicks to use during their one-hour session. Then get kicking!
Celebrate your achievements
Celebrate your club's achievements, on the scoreboard and in the lives of the families you’re helping support.
Why it matters
When Pene and Kristian noticed unusual bruising on their two-and-a-half-year-old son Hugo’s body, they couldn’t have imagined the journey that lay ahead.
What started as a concerned visit to the doctor quickly turned into a life-changing diagnosis: T-Cell Acute Lymphatic Leukaemia.
The family was immediately transferred to the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.
It was during this challenging time that the family first encountered Ronald McDonald House North Fitzroy. It became a much-needed sanctuary away from the hospital environment.
Your club's fundraising helps families like Hugo's stay together during the toughest times of their lives.
