With the ability to do common things uncommonly well, guiding the Management Committee through the creation of the club vision, values & brand story is a direct result of her understanding & connecting to the fabric of Phoenix Lacrosse & its ancestry…..
Donelle has been instrumental in leading and facilitating the creation of the 2018 Expression of Interest to Cockburn Council that secured the recent Goodchild Park Lights & Clubroom upgrades.
In addition to the Club Strategic Plans – 2018-2019, 2020-2023 & 2024-2028, PLC Website 2020, Cultural Change & Member Safety presentations & submissions to LWA, LA & SIA 2020 – current, Empowering Youth in Sport Presentation 2024, 2024 grant submission $100k to remove barriers to women’s participation – none of which are actually common tasks, but she has lead us through them uncommonly well.
All in addition to the role of Club Manager!!

Thank you, feels incredibly inadequate Donelle. It is with enormous gratitude we thank Rhys & Zeth for being called to the game, to Pete coming along for the ride and
THANK YOU Donelle for the courage, connection, kindness, understanding, pure genius & love you bring to this community.
Without all that you have contributed over the last years, it is not a stretch to say that Phoenix Lacrosse Club could likely have been a thing of the past,
rather than a beacon of light for the future.
