Players from Starkick centres across Perth and as far as Bunbury came together at the home of the Fremantle Dockers for the annual "Hand in Hand" Gala Day.

With over 100 players participatating, the event provides opportunity for players to represent their club in a series of round robin games, against other Starkick centres.

Prior to the games there was some fierce competition in the Mascot Race which has become a much loved part of the annual event. Despite a strong "pre-season" in the lead up from many of the club mascots, Johhny Docker, for the second straight year, took out line honours.
