Pat Cronin Foundation Round, Friday 1 – Sunday 3 May 2026
The Pat Cronin Foundation Round is rapidly evolving into one of the Melbourne sporting calendar’s premier weekends.
This is when sport becomes more than just a game. Across nine football and netball leagues, 289 clubs, 3,263 teams, 77,500 players, and over 300,000 supporters are united by one powerful purpose — to End the Coward Punch.
This round is a powerful moment to remember Pat Cronin, a young man whose life was tragically cut short by a coward punch while trying to protect a friend. Pat’s story is a stark reminder of how a single act of violence can have devastating consequences.
