Williamstown

Hello to whom it may concern, 

My name is kirstin Litchfield I am the loving daughter of Hugh “butch” Litchfield, whom was a record holder in the  80’s of kicking a massive 20 goals in a game 103 goals one season then following it up by kicking a huge 134 goals in a season whom unfortunately has passed away in the last. few weeks I’m writing to ask in favour and high hopes  of anyone may be able to help me or guide me in direction of maybe some footage tapes or commentated games my dad might of played in for sunshine , Williamstown so I can help remember my dad thanking you kindly to take the time to read this or maybe be able to help 

This is a fantastic idea which Jason Reddick has brought to the Williamstown Football Club, along with the 21% discount(based on 2014 prices) on club memberships. Hopefully all the Williamstown people get behind Jason Reddick and Trevor Monti and embrace this new era and these fantastic ideas.

The below material is from williamstownfc.com.au

The Williamstown Football Club held a Volunteer Appreciation Night on Monday 2nd March, thanking the many volunteers who give up their time to make Williamstown the club they are today.

Volunteers of the Football Club were invited down to Burbank Oval to watch training before being treated to a free BBQ and drinks, all prepared, cooked and served by the Williamstown staff and directors to show the Club’s appreciation of their devoted efforts..

After the meal, the entire playing group and coaching staff joined in, with the leadership players presenting each volunteer with their 2015 uniform and membership ticket..

Coach Andrew Collins also spoke about the pre-season to date, and introduced the 16 new recruits to come to the club.

CEO Jason Reddick summed up the occasion “Football clubs such as ours simply don’t exist without the endless hours of support that our volunteers provide. Tonight is a show of our gratitude to the volunteers for what they have delivered to the Club in the past and what we will ask of them going forward. I look forward to establishing the Volunteers Appreciation night as a tradition on our Club’s calendar”.

August 2014 edition of RACV magazine RoyalAuto has a photo and tiny mention of Williamstown Football Club. With the amount of publicity the VFL gets from the metropolitan rags, RA readers could stumble on this unknown VFL.
Now, for the other 15 clubs.

There is a small item on page 21 in the June 2014 issue of The Senior. The item, by Bob Horsfall, mentions a Max Papley goal.

Congratulations Williamstown. The ABC showed a close-up of the guernsey and the Seagulls have put together a jumper that will be a real collectors item.

Andy Collins has signed to coach Williamstown for 2 years!!!!!!

The Seagulls are bettee prepared to standalone, having seen bith Port Melbourne and Bendigo return to standalone clubs.

They have good depth and have had minimal numbers of Bulldogs in their side this year, after setting a cap on AFL listed players. They have had good development depth fir maby years now and having more senior spots should make them an attractive option for potential recruits.

I believe despite the massive change and the need to appoint a new Senior coach, that the club will be competitive.

I'm picking them to finish 10th.

Anyone care to take a punt on where the Seagulls will finish in the 16 teanm comp?

Here is a statement released by Williamstown Football Club on Peter German's departure.
