Volunteer of the Week - Russell Dowling

Volunteer of the Week - Russell Dowling

This guy could and should win Volunteer of the Week nearly every week. In football terms, he is the Brownlow Medalist, All Australian and Hall of Famer of Volunteers. He needs no introduction. Russell Dowling.

He is the 1 percenters specialist. If you weren’t involved at the club, you wouldn’t even know he was there, he does the things no one notices. But people like Russell are invaluable.

Add to his cleaning duties, he coaches the Under 9’s, something he’s been doing for around 30 years, and has been timekeeping for the seniors for around the same time.

And this week, on Saturday he celebrated his 60th birthday, going along with business as usual, no fuss.

Congrats to this weeks Volunteer of the Week, Russell Dowling.
