Gary Fox and Lori Chizik will join the league's 20th Anniversary Women's Teams as Coaches on Saturday night, along with Referee Tim Mills, the only referee to have officiated in three women's grand finals and to have refereed more than 100 games.

Fox and Chizik have both had extraordinary success in coaching in the league.

Gary Fox coached Kilsyth Women for five years from 1997 through 2001. In that period he brought extraordinary success to the Cobras.

He coached the Cobras to 81 wins and 28 losses in his tenure, oversaw the promotion of the side from Division One to Premier Division in 1999, and then win the Premier Division title in 2000.

In four of those five years his teams made the Grand Final - 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2001.

Lori Chizik joined the Sandringham Sabres ABA program in 2003, and brought the Sabres instant success.

A struggling program with just 3 wins in the 2002 season, Chizik oversaw a turnaround with 17 regular season wins in 2003, and a berth in the grand final.

In four seasons at the helm, the Sabres women have now made the grand final in three years, 2003, 2005 and 2006, winning the title this season.

Chizik holds a 68-31 win/loss record in BigV Championship Competition.

Tim Mills is one of Victoria's most senior officials, and spent plenty of time contributing to the CVIBL, WVBL and BigV as a referee.

Along with having officiated in over 100 games in that period Mills officiated as a grand final referee in 1989, 1992 and 1993.

The 20th Anniversary Women's Team will be presented at this Saturday Nights Annual Awards Dinner of the BigV. Over 700 players, coaches and officials will be in attendance, and nine of the 13 recipients are expected to attend.
