Great facilities, fields are well maintained. One of the best comps around with plenty of teams 5 nights a week for all ages and grades.

Our son has been playing with BMTA for just over a year now and he has lived every minute. He eats and sleeps touch football and has made so many new friends since starting there. I would highly recommend your kids join up and play.

I’m only getting around to it now but I would like to thank and congratulate all of the staff and volunteers involved in the wet Queensland All Schools Tournament. My eldest son played and refereed during the tournament. You all did an amazing job and it was professionally run. (Hopefully better weather next year)
