A quarter of a century of loyal devotion as a volunteer for the Sturt Football Club has seen Peggy Paech become the inaugural winner along with husband Reg (who has given 20 years of similar loyalty to the club) of the City of Unley Mayor’s Sturt Football Club Volunteer of the Year Award.

Peggy was most humble in accepting the award saying her reward is being at the matches and seeing her team play. This is probably one of the reasons she won the award.

The award was presented by Mayor Lachlan Clyne who felt that rewarding volunteers for their efforts and dedication is a fitting part of the football calendar, noting that players have a number of awards they can have access to.

Well Done Peggy and Reg.

And well done Mayor Clyne for coming up with a great initiative.
