Life Members

Life Members at Parade/St Damians JFC there are two types of life members. We have life members who have made extraordinary contributions in their roles as coaches or administrators, then we also have playing life members who consist of those who have played 100 or more club games. As well as being honoured on this web page, life members are also honoured on two boards which hang proudly in our club rooms. As of 2007, the St Damians Junior Football Club has over 200 playing and 55 administrative life Members. These people have made massive contributions to the club and can largely be credited for building the St Damians JFC into what it is today. Our administrative life members range from Wally Tyrrell (Snr) who was awarded life membership in 1985 to our most recent life members Gina Marrone, Ange D’Amore, Nic Caruso. The majority of these members can still be seen around the club today. Perhaps the most visible of these is our Canteen Manager, Marlene Tyrrell. Marlene was awarded life membership in 1990 and has managed our canteen year in and year out for over 20 years. Although she no longer has sons or grandsons playing at the club, she still turns up every Sunday to help the new generation of players at Parade/St Damians. Overall our life members are truly special people who are an important part of our club and who will always be welcome.
