Redtails in the Sunset tells the gripping tale of a mighty four-year effort to take a rag-tag bunch of footy part-timers and community Countrymen head-to-head against their semi-professional city-cousin counterparts. Coming up against the ‘butterfly effect’ of a rising bloc of south Asian nations, a footy chief whose inbox was redlining, flight timetable changes and a Red Centre ‘jewel’ that sat so close yet so agonisingly far, local representative football has never been so thrilling. To this day, the Redtails legacy lives on through the Redtails Pinktails Right Tracks Foundation, which mentors and helps young people in Alice Springs, Tennant Creek and remote communities gain employment and become community leaders. Now a Central Australian success story, this is where its story began.
