eNEWS - RED AND WHITE UNITE

Message From The CEO

Dear Scott,
Greetings from Albury Wodonga, where our Club is currently stationed for leg one of the Westpac Community Football Festival.
The festivals see us decamp to a regional area for three days, hosting clinics, coaching workshops and events which culminate in a friendly match-up against local opposition.
We have been overwhelmed by the welcome received from the local community here on the Victoria-New South Wales border, and are confident our impact will help leave football in a better place.
The countdown to round one of the Hyundai A-League season steps up this weekend as we approach eight weeks until our opening match-up against the Newcastle Jets at Ausgrid Stadium.
It’s certainly been a fruitful off-season for our Club as we bolstered our attacking ranks through the signings of Maycon, Mate Dugandzic, David Williams and Fred, providing Head Coach John van ‘t Schip with significant firepower for this season.
Add the firing Jason Hoffman and Alex Terra to the list and we are certainly in possession of a plethora of avenues to goal as we approach our second ever season.
And all signs bode well that we will be able to reach a fresh plain this season, with a debut finals appearance certainly the goal for all at the Club.
We feel the time is now for our side to paint not only Melbourne but the Hyundai A-League red and white. Our team is driven, motivated and ready to make its mark and I hope you will be able to join us as we embark on this journey during 2011/12.
Memberships are on track to surpass last season’s total, with over 2,000 supporters pledging to make this season one of Red, White and You.
We hope to see you at AAMI Park when we return for our first home match of the Hyundai A-League season on Sunday October 16 against Perth Glory.
Click here to head to the online membership portal and join the Red and White in 2011/12
Keep your eye out on the horizon for future announcements as we place the final finishing touches on our squad ahead of the campaign.
Follow your heart,

Scott Munn

Melbourne Heart FC Media Release

Melbourne Fans Unite For Heart Health

The dynamic new beat of Victorian football, Melbourne Heart FC wants to invite fans off the stadium terraces and onto the turf of AAMI Park to form a giant, dancing human heart in the very first ‘Human Heart Beat’ in support of the National Heart Foundation.

Melbourne Heart FC has initiated the unique event in conjunction with its not-for-profit partner the National Heart Foundation to help raise awareness of the devastating effects of cardiovascular disease – Australia’s biggest killer.

1500 fans and their friends can show their ticker to create a ‘beating heart’ at AAMI Park before the Melbourne Heart FC Vs Newcastle Jets game on Wednesday 8 December, 2010.

Being a part of the ‘Human Heart Beat’ can help make a difference to the 46,000 Australians who lose their lives to cardiovascular disease each year. Every ticket sold will guarantee a $10 donation to the Heart Foundation to assist with their life-saving work.

Melbourne Heart community partner Metlink are also joining in and will pay for 100 public transport operator staff to participate in the Human Heart Beat.

Tickets for non-Melbourne Heart members are $20 each and they include:

• Entry to the Melbourne Heart FC vs Newcastle Jets game

• A red poncho and a bottle of water

• A minimum $10 donation to support the Heart Foundation’s life-saving work

Current Melbourne Heart FC members are also obviously welcome to be a ‘part of the Heart’ for a $10 donation to the Heart Foundation.

What: Participants who agree to be involved in the Human Heart Beat will join with 1,500 people to form a heart-shaped “Human Heart Beat” on the field at AAMI Park before the Wednesday 8 December game of Melbourne Heart vs Newcastle Jets. The heart will represent the 1,500 Victorian men who will lose their lives to heart disease during the A-League season.
