The Pennant Hills Football Club is a sporting success story, but it really shouldn't be. If you wanted to find the least likely place In Australia to find an AFL nursery, you'd go to a local Sydney club with modest facilities whose modest income is thinly spread to field 4 teams in the local competition. You'd go looking for a club that prides itself on producing great people, not great footballers.
Essentially, you'd be searching for the Pennant Hills Football Club.
Realisticly, the Demons SHOULDN'T have produced a single AFL listed player, but they've managed to produce 26. To celebrate the club's success, former club captain (and Sydney AFL Hall of famer) Barnaby Howarth has organised to have a Demons jumper (number 44) signed by all 26 PHAFL players who have been on an AFL list and is auctioning it off to raise money for the club.
The auction will be finalised on October 18 at "Give it a Crack" - a club fundraiser, but an online auction will run until 12pm that 18/10. To place a bid on the jumper, go to: www.32auctions.com/signedpennoafljumper. The current leading bid is $850
The 26 Pennant Hills AFL listed players are:
Kieren Jack
Brandon Jack
Peter Berbakov
Jarrad McVeigh
Stefan Carey
Terry Thripp
Barnaby Howarth
