While it was about 16 degrees when fundraisers started sliding into the ice water at the Mildura Sporting Precinct on Saturday, the feels like temp was 11 and conditions in the pool even colder.

The Mildura Big Freeze was held before South Mildura took on Robinvale Euston in their SFNL round 10 clash and served as a fundraiser for motor neurone disease research and support.
