Mark Schwarzer
At an event held at The Lighthouse Gallery on Friday the 23rd May, Socceroo Legend Mark Schwarzer has become the sixth recipient of the players’ highest honour after he was awarded the PFA Alex Tobin OAM Medal at a gala luncheon.

In the presence of Socceroos past and present Schwarzer joined the late Johnny Warren, Joe Marston, Craig Johnston, Mark Viduka and Frank Farina as a Tobin Medalist.

The Australian National Maritime Museum was very proud to be associated with the PFA 2014 Alex Tobin OAM Medal Event and to welcome Professional Footballers Australia as our newest partner. The two organisations share a great commitment to and respect for multiculturalism and the contribution of migrants to Australian life and we were also delighted to have the PFA as our Welcome Wall partner at the unveiling ceremony earlier this month, where 246 new inscriptions were unveiled by Adelaide United player Bruce Djite.

Laissez-faire provided a 3 course lunch with canapés served at the Ben Lexcen Terrace
