Dt38 Foundation Sculpture Placement Request at Nib DT38 FOUNDATION SCULPTURE PLACEMENT REQUEST AT NIB STADIUM PRESENTATION Attachment 1 DYLAN’S STORY NEEDS TO BE TOLD On 3rd September 2015 Perth will play host to the 2016 World Cup qualifying match between Socceroos and Bangladesh at NIB stadium. Socceroo’s Captain, Mile Jedinak, has expressed his desire to officially unveil the sculpture of Dylan while in Perth, as all of the Socceroos team and officials from FFA and PFA will be in attendance and Perth will be in the spotlight with International Football. Mile has conveyed this message in a personal letter to Premier Colin Barnett, wearing a DT38 scarf presented to him by DT38 member Don Evans. REQUEST FOR SCULPTURE PLACEMENT AT NIB STADIUM DT38 Foundation has commissioned a sculpture of Dylan which will be the first of its kind. It is an interactive sculpture that will allow a button on the base of the sculpture to be pressed to see the shin pad light up to say “happy birthday mum”. Parents and children visiting NIB stadium will get to read about the Perth boy who had the world at his feet because he followed his dreams. They will also get to discover more about Dylan’s life and learn the importance of self awareness and early detection of their own bodies. This message on its own is a powerful one and highlights the need for education and awareness around this disease which strikes our young men. This disease took away everything Dylan dreamed. SCULPTURE COMMISSIONED BY ROBERT CHARLES HITCHCOCK Robert Charles Hitchcock (born 18 August 1944) is an Australian sculptor. He commenced his career in 1970 and works in a wide variety of subjects and materials. Hitchcock is one of the leading portrait sculptors currently working in Australia today. He is known for his life size (and super life size) bronze sculptures which are located in private collections as well as public works of art in Australia and overseas. Hitchcock's first commission came in 1970 of the Champion race horse Aquanita which competed in the Melbourne Cup in the early 60's and recently did the famous WA Champion Northerly for the WA Turf Club headquarters. His other famous Sculptures in WA include John Gerovich at the Fremantle Oval entrance, aboriginal warrior Yagan at Heirisson Island and 3 over life size figures of soldiers in the 'SAS Garden of Reflection' in Perth The images above are a works in progress and will be ready for completion by 10th August. The sculpture will stand 2.1 metres tall and be .70 metres wide. It will have a depth of 1.2 metres and weigh approximately 250kg. The sculpture is cast in silicon bronze. The proposed base is to be made of reinforced concrete and dimensions will be approximately .80 metres wide and 1.30metres long with a thickness of 12cms. Dylan’s sculpture will be at ground level, to enable the public to have access to it and give children the opportunity to touch it to engage the shin pad to light up with the message “Happy Birthday Mum” which Dylan will be holding in his right hand. HONOURING DYLAN TOMBIDES As more and more people become aware of Dylan and his story, accolades in his honour continue. West Ham United has changed their academy player of the year award to the Dylan Tombides Award. West Ham United’s Dylan Tombides Award Winners to date. Josh Cullen 2013/2014 and Reece Oxford 2014/2015 Dylan’s High School in the UK, Barking Abbey Sporting Excellence, has completed a £600,000 3G pitch that is to be known as the Dylan Tombides Football Centre. Every year Crystal Palace and West Ham supporters in Sydney play for the Dylan Tombides cup to raise awareness and funds for DT38. Here in Perth, Dylan’s Premier League clubs Perth SC and Stirling Lions SC play for the Dylan Tombides Trophy twice a year. People from all walks in life come together for these occasions and put their rivalry aside to honour this young man. Football West have renamed their National Premier League young player award the Dylan Tombides Young Player of the Year Dylan is more than a Perth boy who played football on the world stage, living his dream, fighting for his life while doing what he loved. He is a messenger for a terrible disease that can kill if left undetected, he is a messenger for self awareness and early detection in men, he is a messenger to inspire people to reach for the stars and he is a messenger to never give up. Dylan’s story needs to be told. DT38 FOUNDATION On the 28th February 2015 the DT38 Foundation was launched in the United Kingdom. The event was held at the English Premier League match between West Ham United and Crystal Palace. It was a day full of mixed emotions as we acknowledged the passing of a fine young man who lived his dreams and inspired people all around the world. The day was for Dylan Tombides a professional football player for West Ham United and Australia. 10 months prior, on the day after Dylan passed away, West Ham United officially retired his number 38 shirt. This honour had only been bestowed on one other player at the club, Sir Bobby Moore, such was the impact that he had on all those involved at the club. Quotes such as “inspirational”, “determined”, “champion”, “fighter”, “trailblazer” where always associated with Dylan. Doctors were amazed when he continued to play while undergoing chemotherapy, team mates and colleagues felt an enormous amount of humbleness in his company as he laughed and joked around paying no attention at all to his bald head or his weight loss, but all around the world he had inspired a generation of young players and won the hearts of mums everywhere, when he celebrated scoring a goal in the World Cup in Mexico in 2011 with his message “happy birthday mum x” on his shin pad. It was the proudest moment for his mother as the years of driving to and from football training and games and the hard work that her son had put in had been all worth it in that one shin pad celebration. Even while Dylan was undergoing his own cancer treatment he still found time to raise awareness about the disease supporting other charities such as “One for the Boys” with Ambassador Samuel L Jackson and Good Morning Host Peter Andre’s segment on Men’s Health. He made his West Ham debut 6 weeks after intense chemotherapy treatment. His never say die attitude saw him finish his chemotherapy treatment in December and play for Australia 3 weeks later , inspiring his Aussie teammates and well wishes around the world. DT38 Foundation wishes to honour the message that Dylan’s life tells. Dylan was determined to achieve his goals of playing football on the world stage, his life is inspiring and his grit and determination very Australian, but just as importantly he was a kind and considerate young man that showed his love for his family from the other side of the world.
