As senior coach, Jason has led our club to consecutive GDCA grand final appearances and this past season has been adjudged GDCA Kevin Sullivan Medalist and Captain of the GDCA Team of the Year 2013-14.
We are all very proud of what Jason has been able to achieve at Sunbury in the past two seasons. He has thoroughly deserved all the recognition for an outstanding season during 2013-14. Jason is a fine example for our young players to follow and an inspiration to all because every time he enters the field of play wearing his Royal Blue cap he plays his heart out for his team and club.
Jason is already looking ahead to another strong performance next season having made his commitment to the Sunbury Cricket Club for season 2014-15.
