Lucy Earl, daughter of Dennis Earl was a member of the Glenelg SANFLW team which defeated West Adelaide in last Saturday’s Grand Final to win their first Premiership.
Lucy, 23, 178 centimetres and playing in defence, has played 32 games and was named in Glenelg’s Best Players in their 5.10.40 – 2.5.17 victory. Lucy also gained the accolade of ranking equal 4th in Glenelg’s B&F count this year.
Encounter Bay was Lucy’s first club and later she played in a Premiership side with Christies Beach before joining Glenelg in 2020. While we would love to have seen her in the Red and White, it was terrific to see her competing against our Allani Dawes playing for Sturt on Adelaide Oval during the season.
We wish to congratulate Lucy and her family who have been amazing players, officials and supporters of Mt Lofty and Heritage Clubs, Aldgate and Heathfield Aldgate United. Brothers Dennis and Barry played in many Premierships for HAU and Mt Lofty, with Dennis going on to be President of the club. Grandfather Garry played for Aldgate and was an incredibly dedicated volunteer for HAU and Mt Lofty for decades while Grandmother, Bev also gave dedicated service over decades.
