93 Annual Report and Financial Statement
Season 1989

PRESIDENT’S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

The 1989 Season has been a fairly good for the Parkside Football Club finishing third after playing the
successful grand finalists in the preliminary final.

However there was still an element of disappointment because we all believed we were capable of
better, and perhaps had we beaten the lower sides and finished higher on the ladder who knows.

When we look back over the last three years, bottom sides have beaten us each year, so we must
work hard to eradicate this flaw we seem to have.

This season there was a total of 36 players who reached our A1 side and of these there were 11 new
faces to the club and a further 4 players playing their first game after coming up through the ranks.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate each of the 36 players for being part of season
1989.

I would also like to congratulate Mark Komp on the year which has been exceptionally long when
you consider the amount of work Mark put in starting last October. Well Done Mark!

As with any team there is always a bunch of hard working guys behind the coach who are also
worthy of our thanks for their involvement in the A grade side.

• CHAIRMAN OF SELECTORS - Leo Daglish
• SELECTOR - Jim Dorgan
• TEAM MANAGER - Darren Lane
• RUNNER - Don Browne-Kerr

Again we had a reasonable year with our reserves side and I would like to thank Peter McShane and
Gary Hansen for a difficult job, well done.

I would also like to thank our training staff who were grossly under manned but did an excellent job
through the year. Thank You Very Much!

Once a Parksider, Always a Parksider
