+ Sad Passing of a Life Member
We wish to inform you off the passing of one of our life members, Greg Beales. Greg was a 200 game player with our club and an integral part of our move to the WAAFL in 1979 and played in eight Premierships for the Swan Athletic Football Club. Greg lost his battle with cancer yesterday afternoon. The Swan Athletic Football Club extends our deepest sympathy to Christine and the Beales family
