Tackling Issues on and off the Field –
I’m on a mission is to train with every football and netball club in our electorate of Nicholls. Training with clubs helps shine the spotlight on the dire need for Governments to provide a pool of funding so sporting clubs can be supported to upgrade their facilities.
I’ve hit the ground running and trained with more than a dozen local football and netball clubs and have seen firsthand the urgent need for facility upgrades.
Women’s change facilities are in desperate need of upgrades at many clubs. This must become a priority as netball has been an important driver for football clubs for decades and the fast-growing number of women taking part in AFLW teams.
Sport brings communities together – from spectators, players and volunteers to being a valuable economic contributor to small towns – they must be supported.
Training with your club also means I get to hear from the ground what matters to locals and keep up to date about what’s happening in your town.
It’s been a privilege to train with local clubs and I’ll continue tackling the need for better facilities for our community sporting clubs.
