Tobi Coonan is this week’s The Barker Hotel Volunteer of the Week, and it’s a recognition that is well deserved given the sheer breadth of what he contributes to the Roos. As the Club’s Head Trainer, Tobi is one of the first people to arrive and one of the last to leave, carrying the responsibility of player welfare with a level of professionalism and care that sets the standard for everyone around him. His calm presence on game day and his meticulous preparation behind the scenes ensure our players are supported, confident, and ready to perform across all grades.Beyond his work at the Roos, Tobi also serves as the president of the Hills Football League Trainers Association, a role that highlights his leadership and the respect he’s earned across the wider football community. He advocates for best practice, supports fellow trainers, and helps lift the standard of care across the league.Within the Club, Tobi’s impact stretches far beyond the boundary line. As a member of the Roos Committee, he brings thoughtful insight, a solutions‑focused mindset, and a willingness to roll up his sleeves whenever something needs doing. Earlier this year, he completely re‑designed our website, giving the Club a modern, clean, and professional digital presence. He also took the lead on improving brand consistency across our social platforms.And then there’s the extra part that not everyone sees — Tobi is our resident Mr Fixit. Whether it’s tech, tools, equipment, or some random thing that’s decided to stop working at the worst possible moment, Tobi is the one who quietly steps in and sorts it out. No fuss, no spotlight, just dependable action. His versatility, reliability, and willingness to help make him one of the Club’s most valuable contributors.Tobi is the reigning Marston Family Club Person of the Year and still continues to give generously.Tobi embodies what makes community sport special: passion, generosity, and a commitment to making things better for everyone. His influence is felt in every corner of the Club, and we’re incredibly fortunate to have him. … See MoreSee Less
