Wednesday 03 and Thursday 04 September 2025 at Bondi Beach

We’re always proud to share the amazing things our members and their families are up to, and this one’s a beauty.

Tom Ellison, son of member Matt Ellison, is gearing up to take on a huge challenge: breaking the Guinness World Record for the Longest Continuous Game of Beach Touch Football, currently standing at a massive 34 hours.

The attempt will take place on Bondi Beach, 3–4 September, with Tom and his team playing non-stop, day and night, to claim the record and raise funds for a cause close to their hearts, Beyond Blue, supporting mental health across Australia.

So far, the team has raised over $78,000, with a goal to hit $350,000 in the lead-up to the big weekend. Whether you want to donate, spread the word, or head down to Bondi to cheer them on, every bit of support helps.

Let’s rally behind Tom and the crew as they go for a record, raise awareness, and support such an important cause.
