Completing the trifecta of ex-Kahiba team mates is today's nominator. Matilda #34, Deb Bonshore (nee Carlin), has, along with Shelley Youman & Lisa Dunne, nominated both the old Charlestown Hotspurs & Kahibah from the beachside suburbs of Newcastle as her GrassRoots Clubs. As you can see Deb is still kicking around & inspiring the next gen in neice Abbie. Fantastic to add another keeper to the team ! Welcome aboard Deb.
