The selection of many of our senior and junior players to Australian & State teams and squads.

There are so many people who contribute towards Eltham’s success on and off the field,  not only those who sit on committees but others who generously give their time and talents.  Whilst I make every effort to thank people during the year, I take this opportunity to reinforce my gratitude to all who have assisted.   Evidence of our member’s caring for the Eltham Lacrosse Club  was unmistakable in winning the Lacrosse Victoria Club of the Year - a worthy testament to the outstanding people who make up this Club.

The Executive Committee continued on its policy of transparency and communication and in spite of family and work commitments they are all to be commended for their contributions thus ensuring that our Club continues with its healthy position in lacrosse, finance and community commitment.
