The name Tredinnick is inextricably linked with football in the Hunter, with Wallsend trotting out a pair of them (S & J) in goal in the 1920's and 40's, but it was at Lake McQuarie where the name really came to the fore.
Brothers Peter & Howard Tredinnick, Socceroos #318 & #327, have named Lake MacQuarie FC as their GrassRoots club. At Speers Point on the northern tip of Lake MacQuarie you will find Tredinnick Oval, (genisis unknown) home to the club now known as the Roosters & only a good clearance from the home of NNSWFA and their magnificent set-up across the road.
The boys were the first brothers since the Maunders in the 1920's to play for their country though they never had the pleasure of being in the same Australian side. Howard was the first to be capped in 1981 against Indonesia, while Peter joined the illustrious list of Socceroos 2 years later against China.
It is wonderful to finally add this name and the club where the legendary Craig Johnston began his career to our Honour roll.
