The Aquis Gold Coast Titans last night held their annual Community Awards Night at Southport Yacht Club.
With over 100 people in attendance the night was a huge success and a chance for all of the community to come together and recognise the achievements made throughout 2017.
The awards presented on the night included:
Titans Teacher Ambassador Award
The Titans Teacher Ambassador Program aims to strengthen and flourish the relationship between local schools and the Titans. By having Titans Teacher Ambassadors in schools, the club can continue to deliver new and exciting initiatives along with the established programs that remain popular within the community.
The Aquis Titans Teacher Ambassador of the Year recognises a teacher who goes above and beyond their call of duty to promote their local NRL club, the positive impact the Titans make in the community and help develop grassroots rugby league.
