NSW Sailing Finalists at Mhyc
Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)
—Speaker, I acknowledge the finalists of the 2020 NSW Australian Sailing, NSW and ACT Awards at Middle Harbour Yacht Club. Nominations for these prestigious awards come from clubs big and small across New South Wales and the ACT, and they include hopefuls for Olympic selection, juniors starting their sailing, volunteers, club members and professionals working for the sport of sailing. Congratulations to the following finalists from Middle Harbour Yacht Club; Archie Cropley and Zoe Dransfield who have been nominated for Youth Sailor of the Year. Michael Blackburn who has been nominated for Coach of the Year, and Deborah Dalziel who has been nominated for the Sport Promotion Award. Many in my local area would know that Middle Harbour Yacht Club has a proud history of success, but are also a key component of community sport and socialising in North Shore. I would like to congratulate this year's finalists, but also the sailing committee, club members, parents and sailors who contribute to the fantastic community culture at the club.
