TENNIS
SUCCESSFUL WITH COUNCIL SUBMISSION....
(see article at
http://starnewsgroup.com.au/story/91222)
The Tennis Club have successfully put their case
for funding to refurbish the surfaces on Courts 7, 8 & 9 to Council
Administrators and have been informed the resurfacing will go ahead this year...
With the work on Courts 1, 2 & 3 now virtually
completed - and an excellent result for the Club - that will now mean all Courts
will be in A1 condition. A great achievement for the Tennis
Committee and one which may now ensue the use of the facilitiy for a Vic Tennis
Junior event latest this year - a first for this region.
Well done to all who participated in the
submission and attended before Brimbank Council - and our thanks to Brimbank
Council for their consideration and support.

Taylors
Lakes Football Club celebrated Craig's 300th game (see below) on 22 May by
emphatically beating close rivals Sydenham-Hillside in the 1sts, 2nds and 3rds,
which means the 1sts and 2nds remain unbeaten after 6 games, with the 3rds
winning 3 out of the six. 1sts and 2nds are now top of the ladder and 3rds
sitting one game out of the four. GREAT WORK...

Craig was part of the
first team for Taylors Lakes to field a side in 1990 (Under 10’s) when I
was 8 years old, he was also part of the first (and only) Under 16 team to win a
Premiership in 1997. A member of the 2008 Reserve Premiership side (first
and only open age team to win a flag),2001 and 2002 Runner up Reserve Best and
Fairest. Happy to be joining my brother Adam Feeley who was the first player to
play 300 games for the club.
(In the photo there is a picture of him when playing with his 2 brothers,
his nickname is "FLEA" - Craig is on the right, Adam (300 games) in
the middle and Matthew on the left).
" I would like to thank the following coaches who have been an
inspiration and helped me achieve this milestone: Paul Rigg, Dean Tessier, Glenn
Potter and Steve Burns".
Craig

Member for work done across various clubs in the formative years, Father Steve
is a long standing member and Treasurer of the Tennis Club. Brother Adam
