The Medowie-based junior AFL club was announced as the third winner in the AFL NSW/ACT association's 20 Jumpers in 20 Days competition.
The competition recognised 20 clubs across NSW and the ACT which have shown a significant increase in the number of registered junior players.
"Our club won the signed jumper due to our fantastic growth rate this year of 45 per cent," president Chris Maidorn said.
"Not a bad effort for a junior AFL club in this region.
"We were nominated by AFL Hunter Coast as our growth rate was the highest in our region this year."
Club committee member Jodie Bell said it would raffle the signed guernsey to raise money for new uniforms next year.
For the first time the club had AusKick through to under-15s sides. An under-nine side and the under 13s made it through to finals.
