25.01.2022 Although there was no season this year, there was still one award that needed to be presented... Every year the John Hutchison 'Best Clubman' Award is presented to someone who has gone above and beyond to help our club. It will be no surprise that our Club Coach Kerrin Smith is this year's winner. This is in recognition of the time and effort Kerrin put in to... keeping training going whilst abiding by all the regulations during COVID-19 restrictions earlier this year. Well done Kerrin and thank you for all of your hard work!

24.01.2022 Today at all 3 Domino's in Bendigo (Bendigo, Strathdale, Kangaroo Flat): $1 from every pizza sold will help out the O'Keefe family. This is a win-win-win! Support the O'Keefe family, support our sponsors, eat pizza

24.01.2022 My sympathy to Sam, Bridie and Cass, I hope you have many lovely memories to cherish. We will miss Kim's presence at the club, and are so appreciative of what he has given to East over the years.
