I was introduced to the Club upon our arrival in Australia in 1958 and joined the rest of my family who had joined the club in 1950.

Basketball was my interest and the need for new friendships in our new country made EEAMA our meeting place.

Officially I became a member in 1965 and then joined the Executive Committee in 1977 and have remained on it since with the exception of 1990, when I took a break.

I feel I grew up in the Club where I made lots of friends and have lots of happy memories initially as a member and then in the Executive Committee. I have enjoyed fulfilment, personal satisfaction and have faced many challenges along the way including my Presidency, the sale of our old premises in 47 Whiteman Street South Melbourne and the acquisition of the Stars Reception complex at 1C Bell Street Preston where there are many challenges ahead.
