Tigers legend Judy Meager clocks 50 years of volunteer service

Noosa Tigers and Sunshine Coast football legend Judy Meager this year celebrates her 50th year of voluntary service at the Noosa Tigers AFC.

As a young woman moving to the laidback beachside surrounds of Noosa back in 1975 from country Victoria, Judy’s love of our home grown game drew her to the Noosa Tigers who were in their sixth year of existence.

Since then she has been on the executive committee for 26 years (11 years as treasurer and 15 years as secretary) and right now remains the secretary of the club.

Judy can also be seen each Sunday morning at the Farmers Markets collecting parking funds that are so important to this growing community footy club. Judy is a life member of the Noosa Tigers and in 2010 was inducted as an inaugural ’Legend’ at the Sunshine Coast AFL Hall of Fame celebrations.

Judy has seen the Noosa Tigers men’s team win 11 Premierships over 4 competitions and also 4 consecutive Senior Womens Premierships just recently. No woman has done more for the Noosa Tigers over its 55 year history and it’s been terrific celebrating Judy’s achievement recently. A true Noosa Tigers legend!

Last home and away fixture games this weekend with our Senior Men’s teams playing Cooparoo at Weyba Rd and our Senior Women up against Sandgate in an early elimination final for the Tigers. A win and they advance.

The colts have earned the double chance and should go deep into September after a very consistent fixture season.

Garry Ablett Jnr is our special guest speaker at our final Presidents Luncheon and mega auction day on Saturday. Should be a ripper!

Well done to our Under 13 girls and under 17 boys who have made it through to Grand Finals in a fortnights time. All the best to Breenys’ under 15 boys who play off in a preliminary final this Sunday.

And a big congratulations also to our under 15 girls who also advanced to a preliminary final this weekend.

See you at the footy.

Go Tigers
