Recognising Cardinia Shire sporting club volunteers

18 November 2022

It is fantastic when volunteers are recognised for the impact and commitment they have to their clubs. In Cardinia Shire we have some extra special volunteers who go above and beyond and have achieved great things.

Congratulations to Elly Buchanan from the Pakenham Eels Rugby League Club for being recognised and awarded the NRL Victoria Volunteer of the Year Award for 2022. A truly well deserved award for not only your passion and commitment to the club but the further impact on the Cardinia Shire community.

Congratulations to Radmila Dyson from the Officer City Soccer Club who was selected to speak to over 22,000 at AAMI Stadium during the Matildas game on Saturday. Fantastic that Football Australia chooses a small club from Cardinia Shire to talk about the importance of Women in Sport!! Keep advocating for women and girls in sport, it shows we can all have impact in what we do and achieve.

Congratulations to Radmila Dyson and Cheree Appledore from the Officer City Soccer Club who were recently awarded the Sports Club of the Year as part of the Monash Health Health Promotion Awards 2022 for their involvement and commitment to the Healthy Sports Club initiative and recently completing two health areas.

Do you have volunteers at your club who have recently achieved something amazing that is worth sharing with the sporting club community? Drop us an email and let us know or acknowledge them in the Sports Forum section of the portal.
