Mosman Croquet Club Secures Funding for Player Pathway Workshop

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Mosman Croquet Club has been an iconic sporting landmark in my local community for almost 100 years and holds the largest playing membership in New South Wales. Today I congratulate the Club for securing funding through the 2020-2021 Local Sport Grant Program which will help deliver a Player Pathway to Excellence workshop facilitated by Croquet NSW. Croquet is a sport that many people within my community hold dearly. I have had the pleasure of building a close relationship with Club President Mary Gibson who has championed the Club for many years, pouring her heart and soul into making it the warm and welcoming environment that it is today. With breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour, it is no wonder the club attracts new members every year. This month, the Club will be hosting their annual Open AC Tournament with other croquet clubs across Sydney and New South Wales. It is another event to celebrate since coming out of COVID-19 restrictions. Good luck to all participants involved and an extended thank you to the army of volunteers and members who actively help maintain the grounds of the Club every year.
