Descripción

This week on Big Bears Podcast, we sit down with North Sydney Bears CEO Gareth Holmes to discuss the heritage ties between the North Sydney and Perth Bears. Gareth speaks about the official announcement of the Perth Bears one year ago and why North Sydney Oval will become a vital "home away from home" for the Perth Bears in 2027. We dive deep into the strategic partnership between our two clubs, explaining how we’ve officially removed the "dead ends" in the junior system to create a truly elite pathway from Coast-to-Coast.
