When Pam first became a player sponsor in 1996 at MELBOURNEfc she didn't know just how much enjoyment her and her family would get from the experience.

"We have sponsored different players over the years," Pam says.

"Getting to know a player personally and then watching them play really makes you feel like you are a part of the club. Player sponsorship is available at different levels and provides unique involvement with the club that few get to experience."

Since Pam became involved, she has introduced her family to player sponsorship. Her two granddaughters are now Guernsey Club members.

"Our granddaughter, Emily, was thrilled to receive Brad Green's jumper as part of her Guernsey Club sponsorship. She wears the jumper proudly and tells anyone who will listen who it belonged to. It brings me and my grandchildren a lot of joy to be able to mix with the players."

Player sponsorship includes more than just access to the players.

"The added benefit of a great reserved seat amongst other player sponsors has added a social and friendly element to our football experience," Pam says.

"We will continue to sponsor players and enjoy our involvement with the Mighty Dees now and in the future."
