AUSKICK & NETSETGO Is held at the Bill Drummond Life Membership Avoca Public Park on Wednesday afternoons. Auskick at 3.30 pm Netsetgo at 3.45pm The Avoca Football Netball Club is very pleased to announce that club President, Bill Drummond, was recently presented with Life Membership at the Annual General Meeting. Bill Drummond has been an outstanding member of the Avoca FNC for many years and has proven to be a very worthy recipient to receive a Life Membership of this Club. Bill commenced playing at junior level in the late 70’s, early 80’s and soon showed his prowess with the football by winning the Under 15 Lexton Football League Best & Fairest award in 1983. It wasn’t just at a playing level that he excelled and it was at an early age that he showed what was to come with his administrative type skills when he was awarded his first Best Clubman award in 1984 at the age of 15. Thank you to Zim’s Fencing and Maryborough Sportspower for donating awards for our Junior footballers. Bill was a very active voluntary member of the Club in his early years and received the award again in 1989 and could quite easily have been awarded the honour again on many other occasions over the years. Bill has served on the committee for many years taking on various roles and tasks but his most recent contribution as Club President and Club Delegate leading the Club in these difficult times has certainly helped our club through these extraordinary times. Bills input and contribution representing the Cricket Club on the Sporting & Recreation Committee of Management for over 30 years has been a great asset to the AFNC (as the main user group) by leading and assisting in the development of our magnificent facilities over many years to what it is today that we can all be proud of. When Bill took the position of Netball Coordinator for the Club back in 2015 the MCDFNL recognised Bill’s proficiencies by awarding him the Max Martin Administrator of the year award which was well deserved. Bill has held many positions within the Club and also ones that have been difficult to find volunteers for. This is demonstrated by his current roles as the Club’s Child Safety Officer, Club Covid Marshall and Liquor Licensee Bill has been an invaluable club person which he has dedicated most of his life to volunteering and contributing to this Club and is well worthy of a Life Membership award. Congratulations Bill! (Bill is pictured with Vice-President Alana Burge who presented Bill with his Life Membership Certificate.)
