GLoBALL to celebrate season launch
Proudly supported by iPrimus, GLoBALL aims to use Australian sport as a vehicle to engage international students and newly arrived migrants with the Australian community.
Launched in 2009, the GloBALL program is a joint initiative run by the Essendon Football Club and Cricket Victoria which aims to help international students and newly arrived migrants settle into life in Australia. In 2010, the program saw more
than 4000 participants receive the opportunity to participate in various football and cricket activities including free entry to matches, clinics and tours.

The 2011 GloBALL AFL season launch event, held on Wednesday 20th April, will feature both football and cricket activities, a free BBQ, merchandise giveaways, player appearances and autograph signings with the aim to introduce this great initiative to newly arrived migrant students.
GLoBALL is calling on Essendon fans to sign up as GLoBALL ambassadors to assist in the promotion of Australian Rules Football to new international migrants. In order to secure free tickets to a Bombers’ match, ambassadors are required to sit with a group of
international students, share their knowledge about footy and help the new migrants enjoy the experience and Australian sporting culture.

- Sunday 1st May, Ess vs. Gold Coast @ Etihad
