It was wonderful to see some members of one of our heritage club Heathfield Aldgate United, take time to catch up at club sponsor Aldgate Pump Hotel, prior to season start. The Aldgate Pump Hotel has a wonderful history with HAU as the social gathering point over the years.

HAU footballers had a great time going through memories of the 44 year Australian Record of unbeaten matches, only beaten in 2020 by Queensland Club Yeppoon, in a 6-team competition.

Initially, our unbeaten run between 1971 and 1976 was calculated as 88 games, but an analysis several years ago revealed that it was “only” 87 games without loss.

We hope you had a great time fellas!
