I wish to congratulate Mr Terry Wong from Hurlstone Park Wanderers for his recent recognition by Football NSW during Volunteer's week. Terry is the Club's Coaching Coordinator and started coaching more than a decade ago, when his oldest child was in under 6's. This was the start of building something very special – he has revolutionised the coach development program and the Little Lions program is now a well organised program with support from dedicated coaches, all mentored by Terry. The kids who benefit from this all have a ball! But Terry didn't stop there – he also established the Mini Cubs for 3-5 year olds, and mentored enthusiastic young players in the club to run this program – again sharing his skills, knowledge and passion for the game. Terry has also been Club Vice President and champions sponsorship for the club. In 2024 he was instrumental in the Club sourcing grants to implement programs for females in leadership, coaching development and the first ever all abilities program for female players. Congratulations Terry and thank you for your dedication to your Club and community.
