Unfurling the 2019 Senior Premiership Flag
The Keilor Football Club is delighted to be unfurling our 2019 Premiership Flag in front of a capacity crowd at Joe Brown Oval.
In late 2020, the Keilor Football Club lost an incredibly valued Life Member, Paul Gluschenko, who was also in recent years, ‘the stats man’ for the Senior Men’s side. His dedication and commitment for his role was absolutely second to none, and with his precision and hard work, a job that genuinely cannot be replicated.
To unfurl this flag, one of which Paul was richly part of, the honour of raising it on at our ground for the first time to the public will go to the Gluschenko family.
