JUNE 10, 2016: AFTER learning of the need for some major improvements at the Mackay Netball Association courts, I was happy to announce today that a re-elected Liberal National Government will provide $250,000 for upgrades and new courts.I met with Lyn Law and members of her committee on a couple of occasions and also conducted an inspection of the netball courts which are cracking up, literally.The club is struggling to cater for their large membership base on the eight courts they have, and they have plans in place to build another eight courts, as well as completely resurface the existing courts.The club has worked hard to raise money themselves but this is a big job, and this Federal commitment would enable them to take another step forward in their plan to have 16 quality surfaced courts available to cater for their 1400 members.An upgrade will also enable the Mackay Netball Association to grow the membership base because the demand is already there.
