Out of respect for the Tapping family, the Essendon Football Club has made the decision to postpone the Club’s Family Day, which was scheduled for this afternoon.
Dale Tapping, a beloved figure among both players and staff at the Bombers, tragically lost his battle with Myeloma this morning.
The Club will provide further details regarding a replacement date in the coming days.
We understand that this may cause some inconvenience due to the short notice of this announcement.
Our thoughts are with Dale’s family, friends, and the entire Essendon community during this incredibly difficult time.
