The role of Treasurer was not filled at the AGM but Terry Fitzgerald has volunteered to take up the position. Terry was elected to the Board as a Director and as a CPA has the skills to fulfil the role. Terry has been with the club seven years now, having played 500 games in Adelaide with the Woodville Baseball Club, where he was also involved at Board level. As a Wildcat he has retired into our fifths side, The X-Men, after successfully coaching our seconds, thirds and fourths sides. This is Terry's second stint on the Board and we look forward to his deeper involvement in the Waverley Baseball Club.

Julie has been involved with the WBC as a parent for the past 10 years. She has two sons playing in U16 and U14. Julie has been a member of the junior committee for the past two years and this is her first time on the board. Julie and her husband Steve were the recipients of the 2003/2004 season Doug Clarkson Memorial Best Clubman Award. They are honoured and very proud of this award.
