INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
JASMINE FUHLBOHM
For 7 years, Jasmine has been an integral part of the Magpies family, starting her journey as a youthful 17 year old. What makes Magpies more than just a club for her is the profound sense of community, the familial atmosphere, and the meaningful relationships she has cultivated with both staff and patrons. Magpies, to Jasmine, is not merely an establishment; it’s a distinct culture.
Jasmine draws inspiration from her remarkable role model, her mother, whose strength shone through during a challenging time. Losing her partner, Jasmine’s father, to a heart attack when she was just 10 years old, she witnessed her mother’s resilience and hard work, principles that have become deeply ingrained in Jasmine. The loss of her father compelled her to mature quickly, instilling in her a drive to make a positive impact. Motivated by her personal journey, Jasmine has dedicated herself to a cause close to her heart. In response to her father’s passing, she tirelessly raised over $7,000 and heightened awareness about the crucial need for defibrillator machines. Her efforts reached various charities, organisations, and locations within the Mackay community that lacked access to this vital resource.
Jasmine’s pride lies in her career at Magpies, a journey that began as a barista and recently led to her appointment as the Duty Operations Manager at the remarkable age of 24. The pinnacle of her achievements was being honoured with the 2024 Mackay Young Citizen of the Year Award. For young women aspiring to carve their paths, Jasmine offers empowering advice: “It’s your life, and only you can steer it. Run your own race, and don’t get caught up with other people’s success. Everyone is different and capable of great things.”
XIANGHONG LI (LI)
Meet Li, one of our staff members here at Magpies. Originally from Shenzhen, China, a city near Hong Kong, Li embarked on a new chapter in her life when she moved to Australia in 2014 to join her husband in Mackay. Back in China, Li dazzled audiences as a singer and performer, specialising in the mesmerising art of face changing, a highlight act of Sichuan Opera. Her talents have taken her across the globe, with performances in Singapore, Russia, Malaysia, and Indonesia. She recently performed her act at Magpies to celebrate Chinese New Year.
Since joining the Magpies family three months ago, Li has found a sense of belonging and warmth, describing it as a big, welcoming family.
Despite facing challenges, including her husband’s recent diagnosis of prostate cancer, Li remains resilient and grateful for the support of her colleagues, particularly Kelsey, who has been a wonderful mentor and friend. While hospitality initially sounded daunting to Li, she has since embraced the opportunity Magpies has given her, finding joy in the challenge, and gaining confidence every day. Her advice to women chasing their dreams? “Never give up. Persistence is key, and with determination, success is inevitable.”
MANDATORY HOSPITALITY QUALIFICATIONS
Magpies Sporting Clubs requires all employees who are involved in the service or supply of liquor to hold a current responsible service of alcohol (RSA) certificate. All employees who carry out any gambling duties must hold a current responsible service of gambling (RSG) certificate. Both of these qualifications must be obtained from a nationally recognised provider.

😭 Thoughts and prayers for our GM... Lee has spent the day in mourning following Queensland`s devastating defeat in the 2026 State of Origin. 💔
Just when he thought it couldn`t get any worse... a delivery arrived. 💙 Daina, never one to let a golden opportunity pass by, sent her "deepest condolences" in the form of blue flowers. Savage.
She may not work here anymore, but she clearly hasn`t forgotten how to wind up our GM! This rivalry has been going strong for years and some battles are simply too much fun to leave on the footy field. 😉 #MagpiesStaff #FriendliestClub #StateOfOrigin2026 #bluesvsmaroons #nrl #rugbyleague

We’re excited to announce Broken Ballerina Inc. as our current donation tin recipient! 💗
From 6th July to 5th October, every bit of loose change collected will help rehabilitate dogs in need, find them loving forever homes, provide custom pet identification tags, and support volunteer microchip scanning across our region. 🐾
This cause is especially close to the heart of Bianca from our Magpies team (pictured), who has been fostering dogs for this incredible charity over the past 9 months.
There’s still one more opportunity in 2026 to support another amazing local cause! A huge thank you to our members and guests—your spare change continues to make a real difference. 💫

Great to see Lou jumping in for a photo with the Mackay District School Sport Rugby League Trial squad today!

It’s always awesome to see local kids getting out there, giving it their all, and enjoying the sport. Good luck to everyone who trialled today! 💛🖤👏 #MagpiesCommunity #MagpiesStaff

Today we pause to reflect, remember and honour the courage and sacrifice of those who have served and continue to serve.
This Anzac Day, we’re especially proud to recognise our own Cruiz, a dedicated member of the Army Cadet Unit here in Mackay. His commitment, discipline, and respect for the values of service embody the true spirit of the day.
It’s an honour to have someone within our team who not only works hard across the club but also shows such deep respect for our history and those who came before us. #MagpiesStaff
Lest we forget.

Today we celebrated Finchy’s 15-year anniversary at Magpies with a special morning tea alongside the Magpies flock.
Fifteen years ago, Andrew first walked through our doors as a work experience student in Centro Restaurant — but it didn’t take long for him to catch the Magpies bug, and he’s been a valued part of the team ever since!
Thank you, Andrew, for your loyalty, dedication, and years of hard work. We truly appreciate everything you do. #MagpiesStaff #15YearsStrong #TeamMagpies
