With still 3 scheduled runs to go at the time of writing, we are 92 up on the previous season's figures and should top the 3000 mark by our Annual Meeting. Financial membership at the end of 1983 closed with 487 Senior Men, 47 Senior Women, 18 Junior Men and 6 Junior Women, a total of 558® The change to making our membership year valid for the Calendar Year (January to DecmeberJ had brought about an excellent response - by mid-February our membership figures were in excess of two thirds of the previous year's total, six weeks into the new year. Greater race particiaption combined with sound financial management is enabling our club to maintain the same level of fees for yet another period, a rare feat indeed these days. There has also been a greater awareness among our members (in spite of some perpetual shirkers on the athletic scene) to fulfill their roster requirements at least just that once a year which has in turn led to better management of our events <> Couple this with the excellent co-operation with other dubs and the Victorian Athletic Association, as well as involvement with major fun runs such as the Big M Melbourne Marathon, Toyota Olympic Fun Hun, etco, your club has made a considerable and growing contribution to the well being of distance running in Australia® However, unless we pay constant attention to all these matters concerning us and set about at running our own affairs on a basis of self-help and co-operation, progress soon staggers to a halt and few things will go according to our likingo To make our office a proper working centre, we need to aim at 1000 members» If you have enjoyed your participation in the VMC RR, have you kept it a secfet or have you told others I?

  • Work Underway on New Elite Women's Facilities at Ikon Park.Pdf Pdf 199.59 KB
    Wednesday, 27 January 2021 WORK UNDERWAY ON NEW ELITE WOMEN’S FACILITIES AT IKON PARK Purpose-built AFLW change rooms and an elite indoor training facility will level the playing field for women footballers at Ikon Park, with work underway on the landmark project. On the eve of the 2021 AFLW season, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Martin Pakula today joined Carlton president Mark LoGiudice, AFLW stars Maddy Prespakis and Tayla Harris and Federal Minister for Superannuation, Financial Services and the Digital Economy Jane Hume at Ikon Park to view progress. Prior to the pandemic, women’s football in Victoria was booming and with the anticipated return of community footy in 2021, that trend is set to continue. The establishment of the AFLW in 2017 was a game-changer, with Ikon Park hosting a sell-out crowd of nearly 25,000 people at the first-ever AFLW match between Carlton and Collingwood. The 2021 AFLW season kicks off tomorrow night at Ikon Park with the Blues again hosting the Magpies. Current match-day facilities are below par and the project will see the demolition of the Pratt Stand and the construction of a match-day pavilion with AFLW-standard change rooms, an elite indoor training facility and better views into the ground from Princes Park. The existing training and administration building will be refurbished and upgraded to provide AFLW and AFL players and staff access to the same facilities and resources, reinforcing a culture of gender equality throughout the club. Lighting will also be upgraded to allow broadcasting of AFLW night matches.
