The Queensland Maroons squad hit up Warwick today for the team’s Regional Fan Day experience, much to the delight of rugby league fans who met their sporting heroes.

A parade down Palmerin Street, junior rugby league clinics, and a chance to watch the team train were part of today’s experiences, and the wet weather did not deter locals from enjoying every minute of it.

From Billy Slater and Johnathan Thurston to stand-out player Cameron Munster, the team’s presence lit up Warwick before the final showdown of Origin 2022 next Wednesday.

A community fundraising dinner was also held last night and a coaches fundraising breakfast occurred this morning.
