Cec Barlow
"Volunteers Award 2024"
An Extraordinary Volunteer and Super Mum
Sarah Elsleiman has been a remarkable volunteer for Ashfield Pirates FC, showcasing unwavering dedication and support over the past five years. This super mum has gone above and beyond, recently managing both the Under 10's and Under 15's teams while always stepping in to help in the canteen at every home game. Her enthusiasm and commitment are infectious, and her cheers at Pratten Park can be heard across Ashfield, inspiring players and supporters alike.
While we are blessed with many incredible volunteers, Sarah has truly stood out in 2024. Her energy, passion, and love for the Pirates embody everything our club represents. Sarah’s contributions have left a lasting impact on the club and our community, and we couldn’t be prouder to have her as part of the Pirates family. Thank you, Sarah, for all that you do!
Bert Harvey
"Fair Play Award 2022"
Another successful season for the Pirates culminated in winning one of the two major awards at the 2022 Football Canterbury Volunteers Recognition Dinner—the Bert Harvey Fair Play Award.
This prestigious honour is a testament to the outstanding culture of our club, reflecting the dedication, sportsmanship, and camaraderie of our players, officials, and members. It’s more than just an award; it symbolises what makes Ashfield Pirates FC truly special.
As Club President, I couldn’t be prouder of every single Pirate. This achievement highlights the values we uphold both on and off the field and celebrates the incredible spirit of our Pirates family. Here's to continuing this legacy of excellence and fair play!
