I don't think I've asked anything from SWAFL, but this is the time where everyone can spend about 30 seconds to support our fantastic league. This must be done before Friday, October 15.
Thanks to Jemma Still, we've got a fantastic cut and paste letter you can use as a proforma or make up your own.
TEMPLATE for the Hon. Carmel Tebbutt.
Email: marrickville@parliament.nsw.gov.au
All you need to write is:
· Name
· SWAFL
Club
· Address
(to prove you reside in the electorate)
And
then copy paste this blurb:
I
endorse the Sydney Women’s AFL’s project for field improvements at Mahoney Park
through the Community Building Partnership Program.
If
the surface was upgraded and additional seating facilities provided, it would
assist the league by:
· Improving
the quality of our matches (and thus assist with recruitment and retention of
participants)
· Lessening
the probability of an injury being sustained at the field
· Increasing
the enjoyment of spectators
If
this grant was supplied to develop the field, the league would actively work
with the council to maintain the surface and changeroom facilities.
I
also encourage the grant for the AFL NSW to implement new players shelter at
Henson Park to be approved. Between Henson Park and Mahoney Park, there is
nowhere else within the electorate that the sport of AFL can be played,
therefore any improvements to grounds is in the best interests of all AFL
participants and supporters within the region.
Both developments would also actively
support the Council’s 2006-2011
Strategic Plan, namely:
1.3.1 Increase
leisure and recreation opportunities for all sectors of the Marrickville
community, particularly special needs groups, including the aged, people with
disabilities, females, youth, Aboriginal people and CALD groups; and
3.2.1 Develop and
implement a range of strategies for the improved management of parks facilities
including picnic facilities, toilets, sportsgrounds, playgrounds and for dogs
in parks
Kind
regards, (Insert your name)
The AFL NSW has expressed support for our initiative. Please see the letter attached but you still need to do your role!
