Luca's Legacy 2004 - A Community Day for Clean-up and Remembrance

Writer's picture: Mandurah City FCMandurah City FC

Earlier in the year, we partnered up with Estuary Guardians as our charity partners and raised a good sum of money for the cause. Now, we would like to invite you to help them on a community Clean Up day on Sunday 27th October.


In 2019, the community was touched by a young calf named Luca, whose life was sadly cut short due to entanglement in fishing lines. Luca's legacy lives on, inspiring us to come together for an annual clean-up event to ensure the safety of our marine friends and the preservation of our environment.


The Tale of Luca: A Bittersweet Journey


Luca, a playful and gentle calf, found himself entangled in fishing lines at a tender age of one. Despite the efforts to free him, fate had different plans. After multiple entanglements, Luca succumbed to the dangers lurking beneath the waves. His story serves as a somber reminder of the impact of human activity on our marine ecosystem.
