Community sport

 Tom McINTOSH (Eastern Victoria) (17:48): (2501) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Community Sport, and the action I seek is for the minister to provide an update on how the government is continuing to support Victorian sport clubs.

Koonwarra reserve had big news from the state budget, and I joined Jodie and about 30 players, family and friends to celebrate the $100,000 for their master plan. Jodie has worked with my office – always positive, always pushing forward – to get this important first step on the new clubrooms. Jodie and the club’s can-do attitude can be seen in the playground looking over the ground, and I am committed to working with the club to get the new clubrooms delivered for all the teams, all the players and the community.

Poowong-Loch’s new scoreboard is looking sensational. It was a blast to join jumper presentation night and celebrate the new scoreboard. This small ground hosts a big team, and all the juniors – the under-10s, under-12s and under-14s – made plenty of noise and it was a hell of a lot of fun. It is going to set them up for success. Go Bulls.
