2016 Annual Report

Founded 1884

Affiliated with: Mid Gippsland Football League Mid Gippsland Netball Association Churchill Indoor Netball Association Central Gippsland Junior Football League According to Wikipedia: Yinnar is a tranquil rural township located in the Latrobe Valley, in central Gippsland, Victoria. At the 2010 Census, Yinnar (township and district) had a population of 860. The origin of the name Yinnar is believed to have been derived from the Aboriginal term yinnar, meaning ‘woman’.

As a Club, we take pride in producing an Annual Report that will promote the Club and community, and serve as a permanent record and reminder of our on and off field achievements over the season. We strive to improve its content and presentation every year, hopefully this is apparent to its readers.

The Club Committee particularly thanks Kate Simmons, who has taken on the Annual Report graphic design production in voluntary capacity (legend!), and the much loved and respected Deb Coady, our very own papparazi.

Thanks Kate & Deb, amazing contribution :)

Yinnar Football & Netball Club 2016 Annual Report, our 133rd year Recognising Our Volunteers

The Club is fortunate to have a large number of people that willingly put up their hand to make sure what needs to be done week in week out through the season does in fact get done.

It is the aim of the Club Committee and Sub Committees to recruit, retain and recognise as many volunteers as possible to assist in operation of the Club so as to spread the workload and not place too great a load on any one person, hopefully leading to a longer term involvement from all participating.

Some of the ways that the Club recognises our volunteers are: • Worker of the Week in the MGFL Spectator • Invitations to the Club Annual Luncheon • The annual Appreciation Function, held prior to the AGM
