We are
so fortunate to have the support of our four local Councils’ Campbelltown, Camden, Liverpool and
Wollondilly and really appreciate the Mayoral Civic Receptions they put on in recognition of their local
Academy athletes.
If you have attended a Civic Reception recently, you would have heard our
Academy Chairperson Peter Campbell identifying the amazing number of athlete accomplishments’ in
recent months.
The success of our sporting teams and the number of representative selections
of Academy athletes is mind boggling. Congratulations to each and every one of you.
