Victory will welcome 200 guests to the Derby as part of LeasePlan’s Carn the Kids activation. Carn the Kids combines Australia’s love of sport with LeasePlan’s passion for helping kids who need it most. It’s about giving fun days out to kids who otherwise wouldn’t have the opportunity, and it also raises funds for some of the most respected kids’ charities in the country.

At half-time, join the TAC and Victory in the fight Towards Zero deaths and serious injuries on our roads for your chance to win a training session with some of the Victory squad.
