This is the Jets last home game of the season as well as the annual sponsors day and charity fundraising day.
The club has dedicated the day to raising money for Parkinson's Disease, Narromine Rescue Squad (VRA) and Narromine Cancer Support Group.
The Jets will also be promoting closing the gap, tackling Indigenous chronic disease in supporting Stop Smoking, Live Longer campaign run by the Wellington Aboriginal Corporation.
