The current 2025 committee;
President – Gerard Doyle
I’m honoured to serve as President of Bardon Latrobe FC, a club that has given so much to my family and our community. Like many, my journey started as a MiniRoos parent who stepped up to coach, and that first season ignited a passion for community football. Since then, I’ve coached for over six years and served as an age coordinator.
BLFC is about more than just football—it’s about kids making friends, learning teamwork, and staying active. As President, I’m committed to keeping football fun and accessible while also strengthening pathways for those who want to compete at higher levels.
Our club thrives because of our incredible volunteers, from MiniRoos coaches to our senior Over’s teams, many of whom started here as parents and players. I’m excited to help grow that full-circle journey, ensuring Bardon remains a place where football is for life.
See you at Bowman Park!


Secretary – Bryony Ascough
This is my second year as secretary of Bardon Latrobe.
Iam looking forward to the challenge and opportunity to represent this wonderful club on another level. 2024 will be my fifth season with the Ladies Over 30’s team. My son Bayley has been playing at Bardon since under 6’s. Following the Womens’ World Cup being played in Australia and New Zealand, it is so exciting to be a part of a community soccer club that promotes and encourages all their players – male or female – to enjoy this wonderful game and to have fun.

Vice President (MiniRoos) – Matt Bromwich
I’ve joined the committee this year after 2 years as U6 coordinator. This will be my 35th year playing football with about 15 of those at Bardon. The community at this club is second to none, and I’m looking forward to helping continue that legacy.
Two of my kids are now also playing at Bardon in Miniroos and loving every minute of it.
Vice President (Seniors) – Phil
I’m delighted to be returning as Vice President (Seniors) on the committee.
My main aim is to put the support structures in place to ensure on field success for our FQPL, Metro and Over’s teams.
Whilst as a club we have increased female participation in recent seasons we still have a long way to go for parity and I will continue to advocate for our members.


Vice President (Juniors) – Bob Newberry
After spending the better part of a decade loitering around the club—bouncing between games for my three sons and making a valiant (if questionably effective) attempt at coaching—I was gently persuaded to take on an official role. Turns out, saying yes was a great decision, as it’s given me a whole new appreciation for the tireless work of the volunteers who keep this club running.
I try to approach everything with a sense of humour, which comes in handy when dealing with the enthusiastic & highly invested parents who are convinced their child is the next Messi.
My main goal? To keep junior football fun. Because while I’m a tragic fan of the beautiful game, I have to remind myself (and the odd overzealous touchline coach) that kids get far more out of football when they’re enjoying the journey—not when they’re being treated like they’re playing in a Premier League title decider.
Treasurer – Ian Murray
I recently joined the club as a parent of two young children in the Miniroos programme. I was immediately impressed by the club’s culture and the dedication of its committee and many other volunteers.
During football season, the highlight of my week is taking in the community atmosphere of Bowman Park on a Saturday morning as I watch my kids’ matches and many others taking place.
I have a background in finance and became treasurer starting from the 2022 season. I look forward to supporting the committee and being involved in building on some of the great work that has happened in recent years to grow the club, invest in facilities, and provide the best member experience possible for everyone in the community.


Facilities manager – Mark Keane
This will be my 11th year being involved with Bardon Latrobe Football Club and in that time there has been significant improvements to the facilities at the club. I endeavour to continue the progress that has been made in supporting football at Bowman Park.
The improvement to the turf at Bowman Park has been the biggest accomplishment for the small group of volunteers who make up the fields team. In 2024 we will see the best turf ever at Bowman Park!
There is always room on the mowing roster if anyone is keen to get involved with the team.
Registrar – Mark Warnock
I’m very happy to join the club as Registrar.
I’ve been around football for many years as a player, age coordinator, Miniroos coach and now registrar.
My role is to ensure a clear and equitable registration process for our members and those interested in joining the club.
Please contact me if you have any questions about registration.

Non committee roles
General Manager – Karen Dickson
I am thrilled to continue in the position of General Manager.
I have already served 8 years on the committee as Secretary.
I am a mother of boys who play at the club and I am also a player in the O30s Women team.
It is exciting to see the increase in women’s football at Bardon Latrobe. I hope we can encourage more to join the game.
I look forward to managing the club’s operations and administration to ensure a positive experience for all those who are a part of our family and community of Bowman Park.


Community Liaison Officer – Seweryn Bialasiewicz
Seweryn assists the committee in the role of Community Liaison Officer.
As a near resident of Bowman Park, he is passionate about ensuring residents’ views are heard and considered alongside the provision of football to our members.
Seweryn also works tirelessly to apply for grants and funding on behalf of the club.
