The Army Challenge Award was bigger than ever in 2011 with local clubs and players across Australia embracing the game.
On-field displays of Courage, Initiative and Teamwork were celebrated at ‘grass roots’ this year across Australia
in the Army Challenge Award with a competition in each state and territory for both players and clubs – it doesn’t
get much more local than that.
