The Wandering Man

27/02/2026

PROUD TO STAND WITH GROVEDALE & STH BARWON CRICKET CLUBS
We are incredibly proud to stand alongside Grovedale & South Barwon Cricket Clubs as they show real leadership in supporting Men’s Well-Being — not just on the field, but in our community.
When local sporting clubs create space for conversations that matter, it sends a powerful message:
You’re not alone. We’ve got your back.
This Saturday, come and see us. Be part of something bigger.

🔥 FROM THE PITCH TO PURPOSE – MEN’S WELL-BEING AT THE TIGER DEN 🔥
Fierce competitors on the field. United for something far bigger off it.
Grovedale & Sth Barwon Cricket Clubs and The Wandering Man are joining forces for a special afternoon focused on connection, community and men’s well-being.
And we’ll also be doing a soft launch of our new Wandering Man BBQ Trailer 👏
This trailer represents community support, teamwork and a whole lot of hard work behind the scenes. We’d love you to come down, check it out, and celebrate this next step with us.
Open to everyone — men and women welcome.
Too many blokes carry the weight of life silently. Creating spaces where men can come together — have a yarn, share a laugh, watch the cricket and feel supported — is how we build stronger men and stronger communities.
🔥 BBQ & soft drinks supplied
🥩 Meat pack raffles after 5pm
🤝 Genuine conversation and great company
📅 Saturday 28th February
⏰ 1:00pm – 5:00pm
📍 Burdoo Recreation Reserve
Wingarra Drive, Grovedale VIC 3216
Bring a mate. Bring the family.
Come and see us. Let’s fill The Tiger Den.

Let’s Get Around One of Our Own – Glenn Molloy

Glenn is a true Brother of The Wandering Man. A genuine, caring bloke who is always the first to put his hand up to support others, show up, and lend a hand whenever it’s needed. He lives what we stand for — connection, mateship, and backing each other in.
Now it’s our turn to back him.
Glenn has registered for the Surf Coast Trek, an incredible event that brings people together to walk the stunning Surf Coast while raising vital funds for mental health support and su***de prevention services. It’s about making a real difference in people’s lives — something close to all our hearts.
If you’re in a position to support Glenn, please consider donating via the link below. Every dollar helps and every bit of support means a lot.
Let’s rally behind a great man doing a great thing. 👊
🔗 Support Glenn here:

We are Proud of you mate. We’ve got your back.
