The Saints President, Gerry Taveira, impressed on the crowd the importance of not being complacent after the club's recording breaking premiership season in 2007. Over 100 people attended the launch and the game day sponsors auction has yielded a record result for the club. More evidence of the growing interest in AFL in this region has emerged with League President, Darrell Benfield, reporting that the number of hits on the Tamworth AFL and Inverell Saints AFL web-sites has increased by well over 60 per cent on last year's figures. In further evidence of the growing popularity of AFL Inverell NAB Auskick coordinator, Tim Ellis, reports 41 children are registered to take part in the Auskick program in 2008. The Senior Inverell Saints pre-season will intensify this week as the club prepares for the pre-season Tablelands Cup knockout tournament to be held in Armidale on March 15th
