BWFC rally to support an Under 9 player and his family

A little over a week ago Aaron Richardson a Buderim Wanderers under 9 Soccer Player was diagnosed with Leukemia. 

Since then his parents Stacey and Scott have been in Brisbane at his side as Aaron begins his treatment.  While everyone is optimistic about Aarons recovery his family are living with every parents worst nightmare of a child going from the fittest player on the soccer field to a ward at the Royal Children’s Hospital in a space of 48 hours. 

Obviously there are substantial financial burdens that families in this situation face along with the difficult emotional rollercoaster related to the treatment.  

The Westpac Bank has come on board as a major sponsor of the club and a big supporter of children in sport in the Small sided games area.

Jason New, the Regional Manager of the Westpac Bank presented the Buderim Wanderers Football Club with a cheque to cover the costs of new playing strips for the under 6, 7 and 8 age divisions as part of this agreement.
