Hawthorn and TAC Unite to Champion Road Safety During Round 20 Clash

Hawthorn Football Club is proudly partnering with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) to raise vital awareness about road safety as they prepare for a highly anticipated Round 20 match against Carlton at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). This collaboration goes beyond the game, aiming to educate and remind Victorians about responsible road behaviour.

The partnership will focus on promoting the 2025 AFL Victoria Road Safety Pledge, a crucial initiative designed to reduce road trauma and save lives. The pledge encourages everyone on the roads – drivers, passengers, cyclists, and pedestrians – to commit to safe practices and prioritize safety above all else.

Why Road Safety Awareness is More Important Than Ever

Road accidents continue to be a significant concern in Victoria, impacting families and communities. The TAC works tirelessly to prevent these tragedies, and the Hawthorn Football Club is committed to supporting their efforts. By leveraging the club's vast reach and passionate fan base, the TAC and Hawthorn aim to amplify their message and reach a wider audience.

“We are incredibly proud to be partnering with the TAC for this important Road Safety Round,” said a Hawthorn Club spokesperson. “Road safety is a community responsibility, and we want to use our platform to encourage everyone to make safe choices on the roads. This match against Carlton is a fantastic opportunity to get the message out to a large audience, and we’re confident that together, we can make a real difference.”

What to Expect During the Round 20 Match

During the Round 20 match, fans can expect to see a range of road safety messaging throughout the MCG. This will include:

  • Prominent displays of the 2025 AFL Victoria Road Safety Pledge.
  • Public Service Announcements (PSAs) played on the big screens.
  • Hawthorn players actively promoting the road safety message on social media.
  • Opportunities for fans to learn more about road safety and take the pledge themselves.

Take the Pledge and Be Road Safe

The TAC encourages all Victorians to take the 2025 AFL Victoria Road Safety Pledge and commit to being a safer road user. Small changes in behaviour can have a huge impact on road safety. Let's all do our part to protect ourselves and others on the roads.
