The Seymour Football Netball Club held its Presentation Night at Kings Park on Thursday September 26, celebrating the achievements of players and volunteers throughout the 2024 Goulburn Valley League (GVL) season.

Club President Gerard O’Sullivan congratulated players for their on-field achievements during the season.

“We had all our senior netball teams and two of our football teams playing finals which is a fantastic achievement,” Mr O’Sullivan said.

“Our B Reserve girls were undoubtedly the stars of the show, going through the season undefeated and claiming the premiership.

“There are some really talented young players coming up through both the football and netball and we can’t wait to watch their progress over the coming years.

Mr O’Sullivan also thanked volunteers who make every training session, matchday and season possible.

“While we are incredibly proud of our players, in many ways presentation night is also about the amazing volunteers who keep our club running,” Mr O’Sullivan said.

“We were also able to welcome a new qualified Life Member as a result of Ellie Fuhrmeister reaching 200 A Grade games during the season which is a fantastic achievement.”

The Senior Best & Fairest Award has been renamed the Gary Brown Medal, recognising Mr Brown’s decades of service to the SFNC as Club Secretary with Nathan Beattie the inaugural winner.

“It was fantastic to be able to award the Gary Brown Medal for the very first time with Nathan Beattie a deserving winner after an incredible season,” Mr O’Sullivan said.

“Gary dedicated a huge amount of his life to our club and it’s only fitting to have the Senior Best and Fairest now bear his name.

“Once again, congratulations to all our award winner and we look forward to coming back even better in 2025.”
