Community Camp | Ballarat Bulldogs FNC

We visited the Ballarat Bulldogs All-Abilities Football and Netball Club while on our Community Camp.

The red, white and blue faithful will be able to see their favourite players as well as meet all the fresh-faced Dogs as they return from the summer break. 

There will also be an opportunity for fans to meet all the players, grab a signature and see the new Dogs receive their 2026 guernseys.  

You can register your attendance for free ahead of the date via this link.
