The greyhound racing community is saddened by the passing of Mr. Noel Ryan (pictured).
Noel had a strong relationship with the Werribee Coursing Club as a committee member and former president.
Noel was also a Life Member of the National Coursing Association and was awarded the 2014 Noel Banks Medal for outstanding volunteer service.
Noel also had success on the track, training winners both on the circle and in coursing.
GRV regulates the sport of greyhound racing in the state of Victoria under the Racing Act 1958 (Act), which includes setting standards and ensuring they are met by participants.
