2022 Amanda Young Award Recipient -

Lilly Donaldson

The Amanda Young Foundation is a non-profit community organisation dedicated to reducing deaths in WA from meningococcal disease, supporting survivors of the disease as well as the development of young people into WA's future leaders.

The Foundation was formed in 1998 following the tragic death of Amanda Young from meningococcal septicaemia at the tender age of 18 years. Each year part proceeds from our Future Stars Concert, held in October are donated to the Amanda Young Foundation. CAWA is delighted to announce that this year $1,000.00 will be donated to the Amanda Young Foundation from CAWA.

Nominees of the Amanda Young Cadet Award must display initiative, enthusiasm and make an overall

contribution to club culture. Nominees attend all Coaches Association seminars and courses and are always willing to contribute “above and beyond”.

Congratulations to the very special young ladies who have been nominated for this prestigious award.

Lorraine and Barry Young are not able to be here tonight to present the award to this year’s very worthy

recipient but send along their best wishes for a fabulous evening.

The 2022’s Amanda Young Foundation award goes to Lilly Donaldson of Hills District Calisthenics Club.

The Hills Calisthenics Club nominee for the 2022 Amanda Young Award is Lilly Donaldson, an outstanding young lady who has supported Hills through the most difficult of times. This delightful young lady has been involved in calisthenics from a very young age and has proven her worth time and time again both as a cadet and also as a team member.

Currently part of our Intermediate section, Lilly commenced as a class assistant in 2018 and her cadetship in 2019. She has worked with our twinkle toes section, sub-junior 3/4s, sub-junior 1/2s and is now working in the junior section. 2022 is her final year as a cadet.

Lilly is very keen to develop her skills in order to pass on to the junior members of our sport. She attends

all cadet training programs as she works towards her Level One qualification. She is also a strong proponent of the calisthenic skills program, sitting and passing her Grade 4 examination with Honours in 2021.

Her beautiful personality lends itself to amazing results both in class and as a cadet. She has shown true

dedication to Hills, rarely misses a class, fits in wherever needed, knows her work well and is always happy to help her teammates.

Lilly has proven herself to be a fantastic role model to our younger members. Her work ethic is exceptional, and her loyalty and support of our club members epitomises what Hills is about. Lilly is a true team player and is loved by all who come in contact with her.
