'Sleapy's Day' charity match day at Mitchell Oval attracted a substantial crowd and raised funds for Peter Sleap's charity foundation.

South Newcastle's 'Sleapy's Day' charity match day drew a large crowd to Mitchell Oval, with an estimated turnout potentially surpassing last year's 5,000 attendees. Named after club legend Peter Sleap, the event raised funds for his charity foundation, which supports those battling serious illnesses. Both teams donated their game day jerseys for auction, and an inaugural "Sleap Walk" fundraiser is planned for November.
