In the midst of a challenging start to their season, the North Queensland Cowboys are aiming to bring some much-needed joy to the flood-ravaged communities in their region as the club celebrates its 30th year.
The team, like the rest of the community, has faced adversity with winger Murray Taulagi acknowledging, "We haven't won this year.
It's been a tough, tough start,".
Despite the difficult circumstances, the Cowboys are striving to maintain a positive attitude.
The recent natural disasters have taken a toll on the region, with flash flooding in Townsville and property inundation in Ingham leaving many residents struggling to recover.
Former Cowboys captain Laurie Spina experienced significant losses on his farm due to the floods, pointing to the widespread impact of the devastation.
In an effort to uplift spirits and provide some relief to the flood-affected communities, the Cowboys are committed to making a difference.
Taulagi emphasized, "We're just trying to be positive," indicating the team's dedication to bringing smiles to the faces of those who have been affected by the floods.
The club's involvement in supporting and engaging with the community highlights their commitment to making a positive impact beyond the rugby field.
As the Cowboys navigate the challenges of the current season, they remain focused on supporting their community and providing a sense of hope in the midst of hardship.
The club's efforts to reach out to flood-affected areas demonstrate a deep sense of solidarity and empathy for those who have been affected.
In their 30th year, the Cowboys are embracing their role not only as a rugby team but also as a source of strength and comfort for the people of North Queensland during trying times.
