Little Athletics Victoria mourns the passing of John Treanor - Life Governor (1984). John has been a part of our Little Athletics family since his daughters, Lisa and Meegan, first registered for Little Athletics. He would yell from the sidelines, encouraging them in every event. This led John to soon join in and officiate, and become totally involved in many aspects within our sport. John's outstanding contribution to Little Athletics throughout the State, from local Centre competition (Caulfield) to Region and State events, will certainly be missed. On behalf of the Board of Management, Members and Staff, our sincere condolences to John's family.
