Nine local sporting organisations in the Cronulla electorate have received grants under the NSW Government’s Local Sport Grant Program.
Grants for the Cronulla electorate total $50,000.
Community sport is a big part of life in our local community in the Shire and I am delighted that hard-working local sporting organisations will benefit from these grants.
One of the focuses of the program is to improve access to sport for women and girls, so I am pleased to see the Sutherland Shire Junior Cricket Association will use their grant to help run a gala and development day for female players.
The following organisations have been successful in their applications for grants in 2022:
- Caringbah Redbacks Football Club – repaint clubhouse
- Port Hacking Croquet Club – park shelter and concrete installation
- South Cronulla Bowling and Recreation Club – replacement scoreboards
- Sutherland Shire Junior Cricket Association – female gala and development day
- Cronulla Sharks Boardriders – equipment trailer
- Cronulla Seagulls Football Club – all weather canteen upgrade
- Cronulla Sutherland Water Polo Club – new balls and goals for training
- St George and Sutherland Brewers Sports Club – replacement playing equipment
- Port Hacking Open Sailing Club – community security.
3 December is the International Day of People with Disability.
I’m honoured to be an ambassador for

Mark Speakman deserves to be in Opposition. I wrote to his Shadow Attorney General about illegal discrimination in the Department of Communities and Justice and his office's first response was that I didn't live in Henskens' electorate!
25 November was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
In Cronulla, today was the annual Walk for Respectful Relationships from Don Lucas Reserve to Cronulla Beach, attended by a large crowd of local school students and community groups with the theme “Call out, Speak Out, Help Out”.
Congratulations and thanks to the organising committee and Woolooware High School.
