PINEAPPLE HOTEL CUP E-FOOTY RECORD ROUND 14 E-Footy RECORD 12th July 2008 Issue 14 Editorial with Marty King

HALL OF FAME LAUNCH – THURSDAY 30 OCTOBER

Football fans throughout Queensland should pencil Thursday night, 30 October into the diary right now. It’s the date that we will launch the Queensland Australian Football Hall of Fame.

We’re still to confi rm the venue but irrespective it will be a night not to be missed.

It is an occasion that promises to be every bit as good as the Queensland Team of the Century dinner in 2003, which was rated the best night in Queensland football history by many who were fortunate enough to attend. The Queensland Hall of Fame launch will be part of Australian Football’s 150th year celebra- tions, which have been ongoing throughout the year.

It will be set up on a similar basis to the Australian Football Hall of Fame run by the AFL, and will allow us to recognize not just players and coaches but also administrators, umpires, volun- teers, media representatives, clubs and special events. And, in fact, anyone or anything that is part of the football scene in Queensland.

We’ve invited Leagues and clubs throughout Queensland to nominate people for consideration by the selection committee but we don’t have a lot of time so please get your nominations in quickly.

Full details of where the event will be held and how you go about booking a ticket will be re- leased shortly via the Football Record and posted on the AFL Queensland website at www.afl q. com.au

A night such as this will only maximize its potential if the football community gets behind it and it’s no good saying “I really should have gone to that” or “I wish I got along” after the event.

So please show your support. We encourage club people to get together and take a table.
