Inaugural Life Member Award - Rachel Love

Congratulations and thank you to our inaugural Life Member of the Port Melbourne Colts Junior Football Club - Rachel Love.

Rachel was aware of our club’s existence before anyone else. She was also a major force behind the growth of the Colts’ Auskick group in the years prior to our club’s establishment. She brought together the group of parents who held those first discussions about forming a junior football club in Port Melbourne.

Rachel was instrumental in setting up the first-ever parent meeting that led to the establishment of the club and played a major role in the negotiations with the Southern Metro Junior Football League that led to our club fielding its first team there in 2012.

Rachel is pictured above with our original Junior Committee Members who established the club in 2012 (L to R - Jim Penaluna, Jamie Rothnie, Rachel Love, Peter Maloney, Paul Robb, Anthony Hobson, Michael Climpson. John Sculley was also a member of our original committee.)

Rachel was awarded Life Membership at our 10th Birthday Gala celebration on June 17th 2022.
