• The continued growth of the WANFLUA social calendar, with another spectacular Hall of Fame function at Bells Functions Centre to induct former greats Gavin Statham, Graham Daniel and David Shawcross; and • The successful completion of a second fundraising venture with Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA) following the 2016 season which netted a gross $54,000. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the 2016 WANFLUA Committee for their tireless and selfless contributions throughout the 2016 season. Special thanks must also go to WANFLUA Vice President Ashley Coster for his brilliant management of the day- to-day logistics around the fundraising venture with RWWA. Furthermore, I would like to thank outgoing committee members Yarraan Street and Reuben Garlett for their valued contributions to our association over several years.

The horse guarding services our members provided for Racing and Wagering WA over the 2015- 16 summer produced a significant financial return for the association, which certainly made the long hours Ash Coster and Jerome Mohen in particular spent organising this venture extremely worthwhile. Over the course of the season, the group was able to see some tangible returns on this investment of members’ time, with a lot of new fitness and training equipment purchased, as well as the implementation of the Match-Comms system, in conjunction with the WAFC.
