At 95, Albert ‘Alby’ Yarnton. is an extremely active individual within his community.

Alby is a ten-pin bowling player, a valued member and three-time president of his Probus club, and a devout supporter at the hockey club.

In 2020, Alby was the first member to be presented with the ‘number one ticket holder’ badge of honour for the Adelaide Hockey Club.

He is a well-loved and respected supporter at the club and to his daughter Sue who plays for the Metro 5 women’s team. Alby can also be seen regularly handing out sour worms to the Adelaide Hockey Club Premier League players during halftime.

Off the pitch, Alby visits Alwyndor’s Therapy and Wellness services.

“At 95 years old, you sometimes need these minor adjustments,” said Alby.

At Alwyndor, we love assisting people like Alby to achieve their goals and help them continue to do the things they love within the community.
