Connells Point Netball Club Presentation Day

Mr MARK COURE (OatleyMinister for Multiculturalism, and Minister for Seniors)

——Speaker, I recently got the opportunity to visit the Connells Point Netball Club presentation day. It was a pleasure presenting players with certificates which recognised their achievements over the netball season. There were 19 awards presented to those who played at a representative or squad level in 2022 overall, and a further 8 for girls who displayed exceptional sportsmanship throughout the season. Grassroots sport is truly a pillar of our local community, and I am so proud of all the work that Connells Point Netball Club to facilitate this. Not only is sport important for physical health, but also mental health. It helps kids to get outdoors, get involved and make new friends. I would like to thank the fantastic Julian Finch and Gail Connolly, who have showed commitment and dedication to the club in their position of leadership. Running a grassroots sporting club is no easy feat, however the pair do a fantastic job in supporting their players and the local community. I look forward to Connells Point Netball Club's presentation day next year!
