FINALISTS ANNOUNCED TO BATTLE IT OUT AT THE TOTE – SUNDAY MAY 22ND
SYN is pleased to announce the five talented finalists for the Free Kick Competition with four Melbourne bands and one band from NSW in the running to battle it out for a chance to play at the 2011 Reclink Community Cup.

The 2011 Reclink Community Cup will be held on Sunday, June 26th at Elsternwick Park and is not only a brilliant game of footy but the day showcases some of Australia’s best live musicians, both on and off the field.
