Nicole WERNER (Warrandyte) (10:41): We are well and truly into a fantastic season of local footy at the Eastern Football Netball League (EFNL), from Chirnside Park footy club, with president Stuart Kearney and finance director Andrea Newlands, which is a great local club in my electorate; to Donvale footy club, with president John Giles and amazing volunteers like Allisha Djordevic, who recently organised a brilliant ladies day, which I attended; to the Park Orchards Sharks. I was honoured to recently speak at their president’s lunch. Thank you to president Rod Faulkner and secretary Vicki Knight, and a big shout-out to my mate Liam Buhagiar, who is playing his 150th game this weekend. Well done, Liam.
Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending North Ringwood footy club’s ladies day, where there were just great vibes all around. Well done to new president Dean Philpots for taking the reins this year. A special thankyou and shout-out to club secretary and all-round legend Tammie Palmer for all that she does for our community. Finally, Warrandyte footy club held a beautiful ladies day lunch last weekend organised by local legend Katie Taubert and new president Aaron McDonald. Up the Bloods! How good is local footy. We love our community’s local sports clubs, and we thank all of the volunteers who make it possible. Thank you to the EFNL.
