It was a fitting family affair for mother-daughter combination Bridie and Vanessa Dillon on Mother’s Day for Cardinia Storm on Sunday.
The pair were the two goalscorers for Cardinia in its 2-0 win over MCC, with Bridie hitting the scoreboard first and her mother following suit soon after.
The win was led by a strong midfield, with play-makers Deb Jacobs, Maddy Reincastle and Mimi Clark preventing MCC from advancing it into the forward half.
Cardinia Storm raised money and awareness on the day for the Breast Cancer Network Australia.
The club also honoured the many volunteers and supporters who have helped get the club off the ground in National Volunteers Week.
