TRAVIS ANDERS - VOLUNTEER AND COACH, PIONEERS FOOTBALL CLUB

For Travis, being part of the Pioneer Football Club is about more than just the game - it’s about family, community, and continuing a legacy. His grandfather founded Alice Springs’ first Indigenous team, and now, as a coach, committee member, and all-around volunteer, Travis is dedicated to keeping that spirit alive.

Beyond football, he ensures his players are supported in life, checking in on school, offering lifts, and creating a safe space where they can grow. Volunteering, he believes, isn’t just about the job - it’s about the impact.
