Are you the owner of Rockhampton Panthers AFC?
Rockhampton Panthers AFC, also known as CQU Rockhampton Panthers Australian Football Club Inc, is a renowned sports club in Rockhampton, Queensland. Established in 1973, it is one of the founding clubs of the Capricornia Australian Football League. The club has a rich history and has seen many highs and lows over the years.
The Panthers have achieved several notable victories, including A Grade topships in 1980, 1985, 1993, and 2007, as well as Reserve Grade topships in 1983, 2015, and 2016. These achievements have cemented their reputation as a successful AFL club in the region.
The club has undergone some name changes to align with community sentiments. Starting as Parkhurst, it later added Northern Suburbs to the name, then Rockhampton, and most recently became CQU Rockhampton Panthers AFC Inc. Moreover, in 2003, the club redesigned their guernsey, adding the image of a panther on the front. Despite these changes, the club has always maintained its identity as the mighty Black and White Panthers.
The Panthers play their home games at the North Rockhampton Cricket Grounds, which they share with the Cricket Association. The venue boasts excellent facilities, including a premier playing field, a clubhouse, a grandstand, a canteen, newly refurbished change rooms, and four lighting towers for night games.
The club offers various teams for different age groups, genders, and skill levels. Their senior team is under the guidance of Head Coach Scott Bertus, while the reserves team is led by Coach Sam Gudgeon. The women's team is coached by Clinton Evans. Training for the senior team starts in January and takes place every Tuesday and Thursday evening.
