ANNUAL AWARDS

At the end of each calendar year we like to have a party and awards night, to recognise the contributions made to our club by so many members and other volunteers. Below are the names of the people who have been presented with trophies to acknowledge excellence in some aspect of our sport.

Thank you very much to our club Welfare Officer, Gill Asgari, for her excellent work throughout 2009.

Huge thanks to Vernon De Silva & Belinda Gee for their fantastic fundraising and premises work throughout 2011.

In 2012 there was a special award for the achievements within high performance, of Nekoda Davis. She has had an outstanding year, breaking into the senior international circuit, despite being of Junior age. We also honoured Belinda Simpson, Gill Asgari & Cristina Rocha for the continued hard work behind the scenes. Thank you and well done to one and all.

Picture below: our 2015 award winners. What a wonderful bunch!
