THE Frankston Dolphins Football Club has a new president.
Board member David Friend has been appointed to the role. He takes over from club-champion Peter Geddes, who finished up in December.
Mr Geddes oversaw the club during a period of renewed optimism for the Dolphins. He was part of the team that worked to reinstate the club to the VFL after it was booted out of the competition in 2016, and took over as president in 2017.
In 2020 the club announced that it was able to pay off its debt after going into voluntary administration in August 2016 owing about $1.5 million.
