NSFA 2025 President’s Dinner

We were truly honoured to be presented with the 2025 Club Retention Award. This is a prestigious acknowledgement and reflects the culture we’ve built over many years — a culture shaped by passionate volunteers, strong leadership, and a community that makes players want to return to Asquith FC season after season. This award belongs to every coach, manager, committee member, parent, and player who contributes to the special blue-and-white environment that defines Asquith FC.

A massive congratulations to Grant Harlow, who was recognised on the night with the President’s Award for Excellence in Service. Grant’s commitment to Asquith FC spans more than fifteen years, during which he has coached, managed, played, and led across Youth, Women’s, Men’s and Senior football. His ability to build welcoming, motivated teams — many of which have stayed together for over a decade — speaks to the impact of his mentorship. From helping to establish our Club’s first Men’s Over 35 program, to guiding youth teams into senior football, to serving as Club President and Vice President over many years, Grant’s dedication has helped shape the heart and direction of our club. His leadership, humility, and tireless service make this award richly deserved, and we are incredibly proud to see him recognised at Association level.

A huge thank you to Northern Suburbs Football Association for hosting a fantastic evening and acknowledging the incredible work happening across community football.

Congratulations to all other award winners on the evening.
