Special thanks 

Thanks to Newport Ladies Lacrosse club who helped our new player Indra (who had only come to watch her sister) by providing her with a new mouthguard and also a better fitting helmet. Also thanks for supporting our fight for Dorothy Laver. We hope you had a great family day.

Dorothy Laver update

A large representation from the club turned up to the information session held at short notice last Tuesday at 2pm and asked a lot of very pertinent questions. As a result of the response, the council has agreed to delay the closing date of the consultation to 24th July. Get your responses in ASAP on the council website and, more importantly, get in touch with your local councillor to have your say in a way that won't be drowned out by the feedback FFV is soliciting via social media.  

This week a delegation from our club will be meeting with senior council officials to discuss our future needs and the process being followed. We will decide on a response and actions based on this. If you want to be involved in helping to coordinate actions, please email Ross, president@clclax.org.au .
