Constituency questions

Footscray electorate


Footscray electorate

Ms HALL (Footscray) (14:42): (6533) My question is to the Minister for Commonwealth Games Delivery. My community in Melbourne’s inner west love their sports, and clubs like the Footscray Lacrosse Club are making huge strides in promoting the inclusion of women and CALD communities. As Victoria prepares to host what I am sure will be the best Commonwealth Games ever, I ask that the minister considers how my community of Melbourne’s inner west can get involved with the 2026 Commonwealth Games. The Footscray Lacrosse Club have had a clean sweep of wins in their grand finals over the last few weeks. Congratulations to all of those involved. The Footscray Lacrosse Club has also produced some of Australia’s best and brightest lacrosse players. As recently as July this year the Australian women’s lacrosse team had six members from Footscray. I look forward to the minister’s response.
