Received Life Membership in 2021
Lee has had a playing, volunteer and administrative association with the Ainslie for over 50 years, initally starting out as a junior in 1969 before advancing amongst the senior ranks.
Lee was a part of the 1983 Monaro Premiership Team, the “Ando’s Commando’s” before he would go on to serve on both the senior and junior football boards.
A break was due for Lee in the early 90’s where he raised a family of three boys, who haved carried on the Ainslie tradition with Hugh and Jarrod all playing in the senior ranks.
Upon Lee’s return to the club, he was appointed President in 2017, having served as Senior Vice President since 2013 where he served for six years before stepping down in 2023, which ended Lee’s half a century involvement with the club.
Lee has over 30 years’ experience in the public sector in a number of management and senior director roles specialising in procurement and finance, along with extensive experience in the hospitality industry, leveraging his vast array of life experiences back at Ainslie to support the strategic running of the club.
As a result of Lee’s longstanding contribution to the club over the span of the last half-century, he was awarded Life Membership in 2021.
