In 2014, eight further stories will be posted to bring the YFC project to completion. The titles of the stories for 2014 are as follows:-
• 60 years ago…LVFL~1954 Yallourn v Trafalgar (January)
• Jim Dorgan & Norm Hall (February)
• Neville Linney & other YFC goal kickers (March)
• Gary Butler (April)
• The Collins Family (May)
• YFC Players to play VFL (June)
• Ted Hill (July)
• 1948 ~ YFC’s last premiership (August)

Of course, there are many aspects of YFC in the period 1945-65 that can be added at a later date and this will be done from time to time.

The aim of the project was to simply research and record (‘post’) YFC history on the Virtual Yallourn website for the future. Hard copies of the stories have also been forwarded to YYNFC for filing.

The project has been successful in highlighting some of the players, officials, games and CGFL-LVFL history in the period 1945-64. The project has also been successful in uncovering some wonderful old photographs of YFC of that era.

The response to these stories has been pleasing and the support that people have offered has been quite remarkable. At the end of the project, a comprehensive list of people who assisted will be compiled and forwarded for posting on the website.

For the time being, my sincere thanks to all for your kind assistance and encouragement with the project.

Best wishes, Roger Spaull for Virtual Yallourn - www.virtualyallourn.com
