Respected young club member will be missed Dear players, life members and friends of East Darwin Storm Hockey Club, It is with heavy hearts that we write to acknowledge the passing of East Darwin

2 Respected young club member will be missed Dear players, life members and friends of East Darwin Storm Hockey Club, It is with heavy hearts that we write to acknowledge the passing of East Darwin Storm Hockey Club player, Brad Dienhoff. Tragically, Brad lost his life in a car accident early last Sunday morning, returning from a fishing trip. Brad and his family are long term, well known members of the hockey community. For many years, Brad, his mother Tina, father Peter, and sisters Amy and Emily have been integral to the success of East Darwin Storm Hockey Club in a variety of ways as players, through sponsorship and by generously volunteering their home and time for fundraising and social events. Having played with East Darwin since joining the under 8 s, Brad was a skilled member of the A grade mens side, a well loved and respected club player, and NT representative. He was admired by all who knew and played with him. Brad was also a wonderful mentor and coach, who enjoyed spending time with the younger players, passing on his skills and his love of our game. His signature advice was to practice, but above all, to have fun. His smile, love of life and obvious enjoyment of our game will be greatly missed around the stadium and on the field as we move in to the 2014 season. A celebration of Brad s life will begin at 3:30pm on Friday at Darwin Funeral Services. Under 16 s games scheduled for Friday night at 5:30pm will be postponed, and played later in the season to allow those who wish to do so, to pay their respects. A minute s silence will be observed before the start of all senior games this weekend, as a mark of respect for Brad and his family. Black armbands will be made available at tech benches, for players to wear. We are sure you will join us in extending our deepest sympathies to Brad s family and closest friends at this time of great sorrow. He will be sadly missed.
