YALLOURN FOOTBALL CLUB 1945 -65
50 YEARS AGO ~ SEASON 1964…GARRY BUTLER & TED HEESOM
1964 was a season of ‘lost opportunity’ and several narrow defeats proved frustrating and indeed costly for YFC that year. During the season YFC had beaten Moe in Round:10 and had also defeated a powerful Maffra team in Round:12. Such wins indicated the team’s potential to match it with the ‘best in the competition’ but the club ‘paid the price’ for a slow start to the season.
After nineteen home and away games the LVFL Ladder in 1964 looked like this:- TEAM W D L For Agst % Pts

Memories of a Town No More by Lucy Bathurst (Crowe) (circa 1991) My memory has to serve me well now as the town where I was born, lived and grew up, no longer exists – YALLOURN. My dear mother on the occasion of my birthday would often remind me of the fact that had I been born a little sooner, I would have received a hand-knitted layette. Instead, I let a boy from Yallourn North beat me to it. The prize of the layette was for being the first baby to be born at the new Yallourn Hospital. So you can guess my memories go back a long way!
