Now they are etched at the club for all to see.

Willie Hanson and Deb Keyte recently had the club's football and netball changerooms named after them.

Hanson has played 582 games for the Rams and played in three losing grand finals.

Keyte reached her 500-game milestone this year after overcoming injury.

She had four knee arthroscopes since her 493rd game.

Keyte was instrumental in finding money for the netball clubrooms but didn't expect to have them named after her.

"It was totally unexpected and very humbling," Keyte said.

"I said, going back 10 years ago, my dream before I retire was to have changerooms for netballers.

"When I started 33 years ago, we got changed behind the cars.

"There were no showers or toilets and a place for the girls to feel safe and secure.

"It was a big thing to go ahead with.

"I was probably the sole instigator of it. I get a project in mind and run with it."

Hanson is Natimuk's president and has been at the club from an early age.

"I've always played footy for Nati, since I was a kid," he said.

He made his debut for the Rams in 1972 in the reserves and played his first senior game in 1976.

At 52, Hanson played a handful of games in both grades this season.

He filled in one week when the seniors were short.

He wants to see a brighter future for the club.

"We have improved the last few years and hope to improve again," Hanson said.

"It's a town-based club and very vital to keeping the football and netball club ticking along."

Keyte, who coached the Rams' A Grade netball side this season, said retirement might be on the cards.

She said she wouldn't make any rash decisions.

"My body is slowing breaking down. I will have more surgery in November," Keyte said.

"You can never step back. The colours run through your veins."
