MR popular, that's HIM

every school holidays means one thing ... wildcats camp. theron started wildcats camp as a camper when he was only 7 years old, so four times a year he would sign up and learn from some of the best players in the state. when he turned 13, theron became too old for the camp but he had been there longer than any of the wildcat players themselves ... he had outlasted all of them.

theron then became a camp helper at the tender age of 13 ... he would go down a few days before camp started and he would pack up the bags, pump all the balls and help with the registrations of the campers. at the age of 15, theron upgraded to being a camp coach where he was now coaching the campers with the wildcat players.

the funniest part of the camp is when its autograph time and all the coaches line up and theron is amongst the wildcat players having kids lining up and asking him for his autograph and even asking him for a photo or two. its even funnier when we go to the wildcat games and you see kids from the camp wearing their signed shirts and you can see theron's signature on their shirts!

THE ROSE

we received so many tributes, cards and flowers for you. our home smelled like a florist for nearly three weeks!!

one of the most touching floral tributes we received was a white box full (and i mean full) of blood red roses from the perth wildcats head office.

the wildcats have always opened their arms to theron and included him as apart of the family but with this simple gesture we know now that it was never just theron they included but it is the entire family.
