Macarthur FC chairman, Gino Marra, said: “Every weekend across our region over 30,000 locals participate in community football.”
“This is a great opportunity for not only our members and fans, but our community to give back to those less fortunate.
“We are honoured to be the first A-League club to support Boots For All and look forward to assisting many in our community through the work our Macarthur FC Foundation provides in the local,” Marra said.
The Central Coast Mariners have also announced Tonkin Drysdale Partners as the executive coach sponsor of head coach, Alen Stajcic.

“It’s an honour and a pleasure to work with all of them,” Bunde-Birouste said.
