AAMI Community Series coming to Mandurah

Thursday, December 12, 2024 - 2:55 PM

The AAMI Community Series will return to Mandurah for the first time since 2020, when Fremantle take on Melbourne at Rushton Park over the March Long Weekend. The match will take place on Sunday 2nd March, at 3:10pm. 

In what is the last hit out for both teams before the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season commences, it shapes as a great event for Mandurah and the wider region to support. 

Peel Thunder Football Club CEO, Paul Lekias, stated that it was another opportunity to showcase the venue and is excited the AFL is back in our Region for the community. “It is fantastic to see the AFL support regional venues with the AAMI Community Series and we thank them for their support of Mandurah in bringing Fremantle vs Melbourne here leading into the 2025 AFL Season”. 

“We will work closely with the AFL and the City of Mandurah to deliver this match to the community, and we look forward to demonstrating to the AFL the capability of Rushton Park as a major events venue”. 

Mandurah Mayor Rhys Williams said, “We’re excited for Mandurah to host another AFL match in 2025 and to work with Peel Thunder to attract elite level sport to our city”. 

“This match will not only be attended by many fans from far and wide, but televised to a national audience, which is a great chance to promote Mandurah and our region on a wider scale,” he said. 

“It’s a great opportunity to be working with our local club to help support the game and develop a program of events that the community can enjoy as part of the pre-season series. 

“We look forward to welcoming the Fremantle and Melbourne AFL teams to our beautiful city.” 

Tickets for the AAMI Community Series will go on sale in February with further information to be communicated in late January.
