Club Veteran Confirms Retirement |
Bron has been, and will continue to be, one of our most passionate 'Reds'. So many of our young players have benefited from her incredible technical and historical knowledge of the game. Bron has played alongside, and no doubt influenced some of the games current champions such as Lisa Sthalekar, Kate Blackwell, Alex Blackwell and Charlotte Anneveld to name but a few. She has also played with past legends Denise Annetts, Sally Griffiths, Jodie Davis, Martha Winch and Karen Price. Bron has had a huge impact on the Sydney competition and fittingly, in what was ultimately her last season, won the Sydney First Grade Player of the Year in 2007-08. Bron captained First Grade for eight seasons and won five premierships (three as Captain). Bron will remain involved as Deputy President, Webmaster and Statistician (try stopping her!) and we look forward to her making the odd trip to Sydney to catch up with her Gordon friends. Only one current player has been at the Club longer than Bron, and that's me. I remember Bron's first match with Gordon and will recall lots of special moments along the way ' runs and wickets when they were most needed and countless 'speckies' in the field. A few seasons ago I played several games in First Grade and it was a privilege to take the same field as Bron. Above all, I will remember Bron's commitment and dedication to the game, true passion for the Mighty Reds and the friendship we have built along the way. Thanks Bron ' you are a Gordon legend.
