Sad news today with the passing of Peter McKinnon. Peter coached both the under 13s and Under 15s during the mid to late 70s where both his sons played. Peter then became heavily involved with the Senior Club during the the early eighties considered by many to be one of the Ofcfnc best periods. Both his sons represented the club during this period with Tony playing 42 games and Andy 2 games after which Andy was recruited by Carlton. Peter and his late wife Celia moved to Nth Ringwood then to Penshurst after living for many years in Olinda. Peter had a great ability to not only teach young men football skills but life skills as well. The Olinda Ferny Creek Football Netball Club would to pass onto Tony, Andrew and Lisa its condolences for the passing of their father. RIP
