60 YEARS AGO~ 1953: JOHN HUTCHINSON PLAYS HIS FIRST SENIOR GAME FOR YFC.
No history of Yallourn Football Club (1945-65) would be complete without a chapter devoted to John Hutchinson. He was a ‘local hero’ and civic leader in many of the activities and affairs of the township. He built a healthy reputation on the sporting fields of Yallourn, particularly in football and cricket.
John was an outstanding footballer and a dedicated coach who was untiring in his efforts to maintain and strengthen the Yallourn Football Club. This is the story of John and his remarkable family.
