❤️💙A Piece of Redlegs History Comes Home! ❤️💙

Some moments are bigger than the game.

On Saturday, Tom Polglaze and his family joined us for our Past Players Reunion and gifted the club something truly priceless, the original jumper Tom wore when he ran out in Mt Eliza’s very first senior team in 1966.

It’s a jumper that many of us had never seen before. Grey and gold, carrying the initials FMEC, it represents where our journey began.

Tom wasn’t just one of our inaugural players. He also served the club as Secretary from 1967–1969, helping build the foundations of the Redlegs we know and love today.

To have Tom and his family there to return this incredible piece of our history was a truly special moment. It’s a reminder that while premierships are celebrated and games are remembered, it’s the people, the stories and the generations who have worn our colours that define our club.

History isn’t just something we look back on… it’s something we proudly preserve for those who will wear the jumper next.

Thank you, Tom and the entire Polglaze family, for this remarkable gift. It will be treasured by the Mt Eliza Football Netball Club for generations to come. ❤️💙 ... See MoreSee Less
