Outback Presentation Evening

The Outback Steakhouse in the Brewery, Romford, presented the Havering Dolphins squad with brand new tracksuits in the clubs colours, red, black and white. The tracksuits bear the squad's logo on the breast with the Outback name on the reverse. 

The local press were in attendance and held a photo shoot outside the Steakhouse with Mike Hicks and the Squad. Following the photo call, Mike Hicks, manager of the Outback, gave a talk to the squad on the excellent community and charity work Mike and his team of Outbackers do. The squad was then treated to a talk from some representatives from the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association and were introduced to some Canine helpers. 

The evening then concluded with the squad being treated to a free meal and drinks from the extensive range of delicacies from the bonza menu. The squad was very impressed with the Outback and Havering Dolphins are extremely proud to be associated with Mike and the rest of the Outbackers.
