David Woodget’s journey in Square Dancing began in England in 1978.
Although he relocated to Australia before completing his learners’ class, he graduated from the Basic program in December 1979 in South Australia. From that point forward, David has immersed himself in nearly every facet of Square Dancing in South Australia—from beginners through to the A2 program.

Over the decades, David has served in an extraordinary range of roles across club, state, and national levels. His contributions include:

• Treasurer of the South Australian Square Dance Society (1983–1989)
• President of the South Australian Square Dance Society (1989–1998)
• Treasurer for six South Australian State Conventions
• Publicity Officer and Venue Manager for individual State Conventions
• Secretary to the Australian National Convention Advisory Board
• Treasurer of the National Square Dance Society of Australia

In addition to these formal roles, David has been a driving force behind countless boards and committees, his dedication and leadership too extensive to fully catalogue.
His commitment to the Square Dancing community is both deep and enduring.

David continues to serve actively in both the State and National Societies and has recently accepted the role of Patron for the South Australian Youth Group, further demonstrating his ongoing support for the next generation of dancers.

In recognition of his decades of service, leadership, and unwavering dedication,
His legacy is one of distinction, and confident he will continue to contribute meaningfully for many years to come.
