We would like to thank Bruce Dawes, who did us the honour of tossing the commemorative Life Member Coin for the match against Lobethal on Saturday 10 August 2024 whilst joining his mates for reunion day.
Bruce played his entire junior and senior career at Mt Lofty, and with 362 senior club games, is still the current record holder for the Devils. Bruce won the A Grade Best and Fairest in 1996 and was an A Grade Premiership player in 2006 and 2007, later adding 2 Premierships in the B Grade and one in the C Grade. He then went on to coach our A Grade between 2014 and 2016, becoming a Premiership Coach in 2014 and being recognised as the Senior Country Coach of the Year by the SANFL. He also coached our senior womens team in 2019 then going onto coach SANFLW League where he coached at Sturt FC and now resides at West Adelaide. Bruce is also a HFL umpire and on the HFL board.
Back home at Mt Lofty he has been an avid volunteer over many years, helping all over the club. Over the years Bruce has continuously helped with oval maintenance and line marking. He is also one of our beloved MC’s at Quiz night, Presentation night and other functions, and chips in whenever the call out comes.
We are extremely lucky to have Bruce Dawes as a part of the Mt Lofty Devils Family.
Thank you sincerely on behalf of everybody at Mt Lofty District Football Club for all that you do BD.

THANKS TO OUR GENEROUS COMMUNITY WE ARE SO CLOSE! LET’S GET THIS SCOREBOARD BUILT IN 2024!
We are proud to be announce that our new LEGENDS BAR is officially open.
Significant time, effort and hard work has gone in over the last few years to create a bar for our downstairs arena.
The Legends Bar deserves a worthy sign and the artwork developed shares some incredible snippets from our past.
You can soak up the memories and memorabilia of Mt Lofty and our Heritage Clubs’ history in the top level of the Arkaba Clubhouse, then come down to the legends Bar and enjoy the atmosphere.
Well done and thank you to those involved in the new bar and signage
We were very excited to accept a $25,000- Grant from the SA Football Facilities Fund to put towards our Scoreboard project.
Chairman Peter Harvey, Sponsor Coordinator Chris Illman were down at Adelaide Oval on the weekend for the announcement and met with SANFL representatives including Rebecca Tappert.
A huge thank you to Chris Illman, Ian Deans and all that helped in the Grant process.
The job is still not over, we will have new fundraising initiatives to be announced this month.
