Riverwood Glory Football Club

Mr MARK COURE(Oatley) (18:19:46):

Today I recognise the Riverwood Glory Football Club on its outstanding season in 2020. Despite the difficult circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the club still received some outstanding results. I am pleased to announce that the under-12 boys team won their grand final, which is a fantastic achievement. I particularly thank Arthur Sakellaris for coaching the team. The Premier League women's team was also lucky enough to win 14 out of 14 rounds during the home and away season. Although they unfortunately finished in sixth place, this is testament to the high quality of football being played by local women. These are two of the many success stories from the organisation and it was great to see those achievements despite the fact that the start of their season was suspended due to COVID-19. I have no doubt that the club will achieve more outstanding results in the 2021 season, which we are in the middle of, and I look forward to hearing about them in the future.
