Forest Rangers Trivia Night

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

——Speaker, as I'm sure you are aware, grassroots sport has always been a big part of my local community and it is something I support wholeheartedly. Therefore, I was pleased to be invited to the Forest Rangers Trivia Night to support all the fantastic work they do for sport in our community. It was great to see some familiar faces on the night and I enjoyed delivering a short speech. Forest Rangers Football Club is particularly important to me and my family as my son, James, has played for the club for several years. Watching him on the weekend at games always puts a smile on my face. Grassroots soccer provides people across the State with incredible opportunities, keeping them fit, healthy and involved. I'd like to thank the President of the Club, Con Sorras as well as the Vice President, Matt Spanko, club Secretary, Tracey Alex and the Treasurer, Tina Webb. The night looked like a smashing success, and it wouldn't be possible without the countless volunteering hours that you all put in. I look forward to supporting the club at future events.
