Seaford United Soccer Club

Sonya KILKENNY (Carrum – Minister for Planning, Minister for the Suburbs) (13:40): I wish to acknowledge Willie Lynn, who will soon step down as Seaford United’s longest serving club president. Willie and his wife Liz have been involved with Seaford United since 1978. Willie has clocked up 26 years as club president. Liz has served numerous terms on the committee and has volunteered in nearly every capacity, including behind the bar. Thank you both for your extraordinary service and dedication to our local community and local club sport and for always making us feel so welcome.

And now congratulations to new Seaford United club president Karyn Pert, the only female club president on the peninsula. Karyn has hit the ground running and will be very ably supported by the committee, including newly appointed club secretary Jacqueline Duncan. I am so excited to see the work they have already done to actively promote and encourage more girls and women at Seaford United, as well as the recent success of their inaugural family five-a-side tournament. Congratulations.
