In 2007, the club is launching Family Zone, a unique way to bring the family to the football and enjoy all the benefits of match day hospitality. The Family Zone will allow families to spend their valuable weekend time together enjoying the football, food and entertainment.

Family Zone will operate in the Harrison Room, a premium viewing room in the new Ponsford stand with a reserved block of seats right out the front. The Family Zone will operate for five games during the season, including the Geelong, Fremantle, Port Adelaide, Kangaroos and Carlton games.

Club Directors Charles Sitch, and Stephen Bickford have listened to the needs of our members and guests at our functions who want the option to combine their football and family at specific games. The Family Zone will allow more time with the family in a relaxed, friendly environment with the option to entertain guests. Charles said “The Family Zone will provide a dedicated space for pre-game and half time entertainment, tons of party pies, informal chats with players and a big block of reserved seating to watch the game. We hope families will return to the zone year after year. The associations and friendships developed between families will be priceless."

Packages are $1,330 (inc. GST) for 2 adults and 2 children up to the age of 15.

The package includes:

• Exclusive use of the Harrison Room, a premium glass front dining facility
