The inaugural Eric Waldron Memorial Shield for Club Person of the Year was awarded to dual recipients Andrew Copelin and Tony Dunn and was sponsored by Eric's two old mates, Peter White and Col Newton.
Andy, along with Zac Ainsworth, trained and took on the role of First Aid, managing the supplies and making sure our players were held together, while Tony trained as linesman and was so good at it that Hastings League is looking to poach him. They also helped the club out in many other ways during the year.
Ball boys Bradley Copelin, who also assisted Hastings League, Mason and Tane Carney and the family of Farrington boys, Riley, Cooper and Miller who manned the scoreboard, with a little help from their mum Leanne, were all rewarded for their efforts in the year as were Zac Copp and Isaac Russell, who filled in wherever needed. Appreciation awards were given to our major sponsors who are backing up again for 2015, Coastwide Concrete Pumping, Muddles Farm Centre, Hastings Hotel, Pioneer Fencing & Timber, Wauchope Country Club, BDM Heavy Vehicle Repairs, Wauchope Real Estate, Sanahi Pty Ltd, Hastings Co-op, Trademark Mitre 10, Port Macquarie Oxley Tyres and Fastplast Building Supplies.
