Biennial Easter Event
Gerry has been the Association Convenor for the biennial Easter event in conjunction with the South Australian Cricket Umpires and Scorers Association (SACUSA) for several events. He was awarded the prestigious Robin Bailhache Commitment award for his commitment over several years, but specifically for the 2016–17 year in which he was a member of the Association Easter management team and the Association Easter Convenor. The 2016–17 biennial Easter event was conducted in Adelaide, and was a particularly successful social event. The VCAUSA participated with many Association members, partners and families attending.
The award of Life Membership acknowledges Gerry’s involvement, contribution, valuable service and loyalty to our Association and is a thoroughly well-deserved honour.
