🦅 LIFE MEMBERSHIP | DAMIEN “BELLY” BELL 🦅

A huge congratulations to Damien “Belly” Bell, who was awarded Life Membership of the Spreyton Eagles at our 2026 Dinner & Awards Night. 💛

Belly’s journey with the Eagles began at just 14 years old, and over 150 games later, he has played, coached, served as Vice President and given so much to our club.

From the pride of wearing number 11, to the respect he has earned and the passion he has always shown, to the laughs, sprays, friendships and countless memories along the way, Belly has truly become part of the fabric of Spreyton Football Club.

The club has been such a big part of Belly’s life, helping shape the path that led him to some of his greatest treasures. 💛

Belly has always been someone who shows up for the club and the people around him, and his passion for seeing the Eagles succeed never wavers.

Congratulations Belly — a very deserving Life Member of the Spreyton Eagles. 🦅

🦅AG (Lofty) Graue Memorial Trophy 🦅

70 YEARS OF SERVICE — TED VAN OVERMEEREN 💛

Some moments in a club’s history are about much more than an award. They’re about friendship, memories, family and the people who have helped shape a club across generations.

At our Dinner & Awards Night, we were incredibly proud to recognise Ted Van Overmeeren for an extraordinary 70 years of service to our club.

Seventy years is an incredible milestone. Seven decades of football, friendships, laughter, memories, good times and plenty of stories along the way. Ted has been part of so much of our club’s history and has given an incredible amount of his time and himself to the people and the club he has been connected to for so many years.

This year, for the very first time, we presented the AG (Lofty) Graue Memorial Trophy 🏆

Lofty and Ted shared a wonderful friendship through their love of the club, and with Lofty sadly passing away earlier this year, it made this first presentation even more meaningful.

Ted wasn’t able to join us on the night, but there was no way we were going to let such an incredible achievement go unrecognised.

The following day, Lofty’s son, Barry Graue, made the trip to visit Ted and personally present him with the inaugural award.

There was something really special about that moment — Barry presenting an award in his dad’s name to someone who had shared so many years of friendship, football and memories with Lofty.

It was a beautiful reminder of what makes a football club so special. It isn’t just the games or the trophies. It’s the friendships that last a lifetime, the people who become family, and the stories that are passed from one generation to the next.

Ted, 70 years is an extraordinary contribution. Thank you for the friendship, the memories, the laughs and everything you have given to our club over seven incredible decades.

We are incredibly proud to celebrate you and the very special place you hold in the history of our club. 🦅💛

70 years. Countless memories. Lifelong friendships. One very special club.

🏆 2026 Spreyton Eagles Best & Fairest 🦅

Today we celebrated our players, their commitment, and the effort they have put into wearing the maroon and gold with pride throughout the season.

The Seniors Best & Fairest count was one of the closest we have seen in years, with the top four players finishing within just 1–7 votes of each other. This is a true reflection of the strength, depth, and direction this playing group is heading.

A huge thank you to every player who pulled on the Eagles jumper this season. Your dedication, passion, and willingness to give everything for the club is what makes this team special.

Congratulations to our winners:

🏅 Reserves Best & Fairest
Josh Townsend
Winner of the Elvin Cornwick Memorial Medal, proudly donated by the Cornwick family.

🏅 Seniors Best & Fairest
Logan Pinner
Winner of the Jamie Baldock Medal, proudly donated by Jamie & Lyndy Baldock.

The tension was real as the votes were counted, with everyone on the edge of their seats. A special mention to our Vice President who was holding onto the winner’s envelope for the final reveal — especially with Logan Townsend running up for Seniors and Brodie Smith in contention for Reserves. The nerves were definitely showing! 😅

Congratulations to all our award winners and nominees. The future is bright for the Spreyton Eagles.

🦅 One Club. One Team. One Dream.
