Mill Park electorate sporting clubs

Ms D’AMBROSIO (Mill Park—Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change, Minister for Solar Homes) (09:39): Today I want to acknowledge the important contribution our local sports clubs continue to make to the Mill Park electorate. They are the heart and soul of the community. They provide a safe environment for players of all ages to exercise and connect with the local community. Last weekend I attended the Bundoora United Football Club to officially open the Puma Cup for junior soccer players. More than 50 clubs from across Melbourne participated in the three-day event, and, of course, that includes another great local club—that is, the Mill Park Soccer Club. The event brought together hundreds of kids and families to reconnect and enjoy the beautiful game. It was a delight to meet newly appointed club president Dean Triantafylidis and the new executive to discuss their plans for the club and their efforts to attract more women to the sport.
