PRESIDENT'S REPORT 1986

To the members, ladies and gentlemen

On reviewing season 1986, I would like to point out that while we did not achieve our ultimate
goal, we need not be too disappointed.
In spite of the fact that we saw many changes at the club, due mainly to the loss of at least twelve
senior players for various reasons, our senior coach, Bryan Dalton, had the "A" grade team
competing for a place in the final five right up to the last home and away game.

This was achieved with a nucleus of dedicated experienced players and the rest of young players
including four or five boys promoted from last year's under 17 side who obtained a regular game.
My sincere thanks go to the senior coaching panel led by Bryan Dalton who performed his job
diligently in spite of all the problems with injuries and such.

Also to Bob Rice who was coach of the reserves and carried out his job with enthusiasm, but
because of injuries to senior players which depleted his team and the disappointing lack of
commitment by some players, the reserves struggled towards the end of the season.
With the hope of obtaining one or two experienced players, plus the inclusion of players from our
under 17 side who played off in the grand final we look toward season 1987 optimistically.

Once a Parksider, Always a Parksider
