Some more great news for our promising 2022 campaign for the Devils! We wish to welcome to the Club, Zach de Witt 👹
Zach de Witt is a speedy, agile 188 cm mid / forward who is returning to footy from elite basketball following stints with the Mt Gambier Pioneers in the South Eastern Australian Basketball League (SEABL) and Woodville Warriors in NBL1.
Zach played his junior footy for North Gambier and made his A Grade debut as a midfielder at 18.
Zach has already shown great signs on the track with the usual basketball traits of a big leap, high level fitness and poise in traffic.
We’re extremely pleased Zach has decided to return to footy with the candy stripes, and we look forward to him adding spark to our highly talented midfield group.
Happy New Year Devs Fans, lets kick it off with a bang!
The Mt Lofty Devs Senior Men are thrilled to announce the signing of Kenny Lam for the 2022 season.
Kenny Lam is a fast, mobile 194 centimetre forward who has joined the a Devs from Adelaide Footy League Div 1 club Old Ignatians.
Kenny started his footy career at North Gambier in the Western Border Football League (WBFL) making his A Grade debut at 16. He also represented WBFL at Under 17 and was in the Glenelg U/18 squad.
The Devs are thrilled to add Kenny to our forward 6 and his athletic, high leaping style will also see him spend some time in the ruck allowing Chima the chance to push forward at times.
Extensive work has been carried out on the South Eastern portion of the Heathfield Oval and the Mount Lofty District Community Sports Club, the Mt Lofty District Football Club and the Mt Lofty Cricket Club would like to acknowledge and sincerely thank our wonderful volunteers, clubs and the Adelaide Hills Council for their support of the latest project. With the drainage work, aerating, fertilising and top dressing of the oval, it is expected that the playing surface will be improved considerably to coincide with the completion of the $1.7M upgrade of the change rooms during season 2022.
The support of businesses and community organisations is very much appreciated and we are particularly appreciative of the Adelaide Hills Council with the supply of fertiliser, loam and for working in partnership with the clubs based at our Heathfield complex. We are also very grateful to Paul Duran of the Stirling Golf Club for the supply of verti drain equipment which aerates the oval.
Many hours of voluntary labour have been provided by long serving community members – John Coventry, Bruce Dawes, Daryl Hampton, Don Lobban, Haydn O’Shaughnessy and Ian Deans. Under the leadership of Ian, the team have done an amazing job. At the risk of consequences, we have to point out that, with the exception of Bruce, these guys are in their mid 60’s through to 80 😃
We are very appreciative to everybody involved in undertaking this project which provided another great example of the excellent results that can been achieved with relatively low expense through working in partnership across the community.
