LIFE MEMBER COIN TOSS | JILL DAWES
Born into a local Heathfield sporting family, Jill’s sporting attributes started at a young age by playing both netball and tennis for Heathfield.
However Jill has always has been more comfortable behind the scenes. Jill was heavily involved in the Skyline Raceway at the site of the original Heathfield Oval (now the High School) and also in the establishment of the current Heathfield Oval site with clearing, contouring and planting – she was destined for community service.
Jill has held many roles and responsibilities over the life of our club, tirelessly working to make it better. Here’s a quick list (we’ve probably missed some!)
She was an integral part of the first Social Committee formed at the creation of the Mt Lofty.
Canteen Manager at both Stirling and Heathfield ovals.
Treasurer of the football, Sports and Lofty Legends clubs, often holding multiple roles simultaneously.
Coordinating fundraising functions and events.
Kitchen and front of house work for private functions to raise money for the club.
All of this culminating in her being recognised as the first lady to be awarded with club Life Membership.
Jill’s husband Harvey and 2 sons Leith and Bruce are past players and all life members.
Jill has seven grand children, all who have, or are currently playing football for Mt Lofty in the junior, men’s and women’s programs.
Jill’s still involved with the Lofty Legends and Mt Lofty Sports Club, continuing her over 44 years service.
Congratulations and thanks Jill Dawes
