Glen Dehring is very well known in WA sporting circles as one of the most outstanding all-round sportspeople regional WA has produced. What you may not know is that a recent cancer diagnosis has set Glen and his family on a very challenging path for the next 12 months as he undergoes an intense course of chemotherapy and radiation. Glen will be unable to work, so we are asking for your help to take some stress out of his life. Glen has devoted his life to supporting and developing regional sportspeople across WA and now is a chance for his friends and team mates to help Glen and his family. Glen excelled at football and cricket. He played in the WA School Boys football team in 1986, was Captain of WA Under 18’s in 1988 and went on to play 23 WAFL League games for Swan Districts. He later coached the Eaton Boomers Football Club and Preston Thunder junior club. On the cricket field, Glen took a pathway through the WA Under 17’s and WA Under 19’s and was a Subiaco Floreat Premier League player. He is perhaps the greatest WA Country XI player and took part in nine tours for three championship wins – seven of those tours as captain. He was named Australian Country XI captain and Member of 25 Year Best Australian Country XI Team. Glen has given over 35 years of service to Marist Cricket Club as a player, coach, captain and mentor, together with 4 years as coach of Eaton Cricket Club. We trust you will carefully consider this request and share it with friends and family.
