A bit about Max Fisher:

Max first played for Kedron Reserves in 1947 and then played A-Grade from 1948 to 1959 including the 1959 Premiership team.
He was vice-captain in 1955 and Captain in 1956.
The 1959 Grand Final was his 200th game for Kedron.
Represented Queensland 7 times between 1948 and 1959.
Played at centre half back, centre and centre half forward.
Max was a dedicated club man spending many years on the social and management committees.
He liked to have a drink and party, really enjoying the social side of the club.
Max passed away following an accident at Clifton (near Toowoomba) on 8 October 1962, aged 35.
He was held in such high regard in AFL circles evident by representatives from every Brisbane team at his funeral.
In 1963, as a tribute to his popularity and contribution to AFL and the Kedron “Reg Legs”, it was decided to inaugurate the Max Fisher Memorial Best and Fairest Memorial Trophy which was re-instated in 2007 for the Kedron Senior Team.

ROSS CLAYFIELD AWARD - SENIOR WOMEN'S B&F

This award is given to the Senior Womens player who received the most amount of club votes and didn’t get suspended for any games during the season.

In recognition of Ross’s contribution to the development of female football at Kedron, his commitment to creating opportunities for generations of young women, and his longstanding service to the club, the Senior Women’s Best and Fairest Award was named in his honour.

Ross has had a long association with women’s Australian Rules football, particularly through Kedron State High School and the Kedron Lions.
Ross began coaching at the Kedron Lions in 2014, working with the U15 girls before progressing through a number of junior and senior coaching roles at the club.
His Kedron junior teams reached Division 1 Grand Finals at U17 level in 2016 and U13 level in 2017.
In 2018 Ross became Female Football Coordinator at Kedron Lions and in 2019 was an assistant coach with Kedron’s QWAFA Division 1 Premiership team.
Ross returned to senior coaching at Kedron in 2020, guiding a significantly rebuilt team to a preliminary final.
A major part of Ross’s contribution has been creating pathways for girls from school football into club football. More than 200 Kedron SHS girls had progressed into junior or senior club competitions through this pathway at the time these records were compiled.
Ross has also played an important mentoring role with players and young coaches, including a number who progressed through Kedron football into senior coaching and elite football.
His coaching honours include AFL Brisbane North School Ambassador of the Year in 2007, AFLQ Women’s League Coach of the Year in 2011, Queensland Secondary School Ambassador of the Year in 2015, and QAFLW Coach of the Year in 2021.
