Tickets can be purchased through the Fremantle Team Store at Fremantle Oval or by contacting Ticketmaster on 1300 135 915 or visiting www.ticketmaster.com.au.

The lead up to the club’s first home game has been overwhelming as the Purple Passion spreads far and wide to help raise funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation. Launched in 2003, the Starlight Purple Haze game has raised more than $150,000 to date for Starlight and has seen Subiaco Oval turn into a sea of purple as members, supporters and players alike don Fremantle and Starlight’s common colour purple. As in previous years, Fremantle will wear their all purple playing strip for the Starlight Purple Haze Game and members and supporters are encouraged to do likewise to go in the running for some great prizes!

The popular ‘Purple Play Off’ is back for 2008 and it is all about getting into the purple theme. The ‘Purple Play Off’ will see one lucky member or supporter in the crowd at the Purple Haze Game walk away with a fantastic prize if they are crowned the best dressed!

To be eligible to enter – you have to wear PURPLE! Members and supporters wishing to enter must register with club sponsor 92.9 at gate 8 before the 5.40pm bouncedown on 29 March.

The road runners will select finalists from those who register before bouncedown and to take part in the ‘Purple Play Off’ which will be hosted by 92.9’s Wippa on ground at half time. The winner will be the one who attracts the loudest applause from the crowd as they are introduced. The winner will walk away with an LG portable DVD player and LG 4MG touchscreen MP3 Player.

Start planning your purple outfit today and make sure you are at this year’s Starlight Purple Haze game and take part in the 'Purple Play Off.'

Businesses around WA have also caught the Purple Passion for Starlight by taking part in the ‘Haze Your Business’ competition.

Fifteen businesses have already registered for ‘Haze Your Business', which is designed to spread the Purple Haze passion and raise money for the Starlight Children's Foundation. This year’s entrants spread far and wide across the state, from all way up to Port Headland, to Gin Gin and locally, in the heart of Fremantle.

All businesses are invited to enter at hazeyourbusiness@fremantlefc.com.au but in doing so you have to turn your workplace purple! Once your business displays the purple haze, email through a photo of your workplace to go in the running.

Everyone involved in this years game would like to thank the businesses that have already shown their true colours and gotten behind the ‘Haze Your Business’ concept in 2008 by dressing their workplace purple.
