Meet Cameron – Sponsor & Dad
In this new series, we wanted to showcase some of the people who support our club. This week we meet Cameron McAusland, Financial Adviser, MLC Advice, Randwick
Which footy team do you follow?
The mighty Swan’s.
I still remember the funky Capper days, then Plugger and the best catch of all time – Leap’n Leo Barry to secure the premiership
Would you describe yourself as a tragic?
No Swans tattoos at this stage – so I cant say I am a tragic swans supporter – just yet!!
Tell us a little bit about your business, your role and the types of clients you work with?
At MLC Advice Randwick, we actively work with our clients to help them achieve the things that are most important to them.
It is a self-employed business, licensed through one of Australia’s leading financial institutions – MLC.
I have been in the financial services industry since 1996, providing personalised strategic financial advice for over 10 years.
The business was founded on the philosophy of making financial advice available and accessible, at a fair and reasonable cost for everyone within the local community.
The vision for MLC Advice Randwick is to be the first option people think of when they require financial help.
How many years have you been involved with the Maroubra Saints?
This is our second year that we have been involved with the mighty Maroubra Saints. Thankfully my son (Hayden u9’s) asked to play AFL last season and he has not looked back. I like to support my kids sports clubs as I know how much work goes on behind the scenes to make it all happen for the kids.
How many kids do you have playing with the Saints this season and in which teams?
Proud dad moment – Hayden is playing in the u9’s this season and he cant wait to rip in on Saturday’s and have a go at tackling. Dad cant wait either
Why do you encourage your kids to play for the Maroubra Saints?
The simple answer was we chose Maroubra Saints from the referrals from local community families that had their kids playing for the club already. I was so impressed with the organisation of the boys last season, every week Hayden came home with a new skill, everyone got a kick, all the kids had a go but most importantly they all had fun along the way.
What’s your usual pre game message to your own kids?
Try your best and make sure you have fun with your mates
…And post-game message?
A high 5 and run through the goals or marks Hayden took. Hayden loves to rehash and maybe embellish the stories which always makes for great listening and a few laughs
Are you a parent who’s extremely encouraging on the sidelines or are you more the silent staring type?
Hopefully somewhere in the middle
Choose : Bacon and Egg roll, Sausage roll, Salad roll or Meat Pie?
One with the Lot thanks – Bacon, Egg, Sausage, Onions and sauce
Long Black, Latte or Decaf Skinny Cap?
Flat White – simple man with simple needs
What’s been the biggest highlight of your own sporting career (so far)?
At the moment I would be happy just going for a run and not breaking down with old man injuries
Do you have a special offer for Saints members who want to find out more about your business?
We are always happy to offer any Maroubra Saints families or friends a no obligation complimentary initial meeting – at this meeting we can discuss anything that is causing you unnecessary financial stress and we can identify any areas that we feel we can offer some financial assistance with. If we cant help we will certainly point you in the right direction.
