The Gosford City Football Club will be able to send more coaches to training clinics and see more referees trained thanks to $5,000 in funding through the Federal Government’s 2021-22 Volunteer Grants program.

Member for Robertson, Gordon Reid, met with club president, Col Seggie, recently to announce the funding and congratulate the club.

“Sport is a great way to build connections in the community, while exercising both body and mind,” Reid said.

“Investing in the capacity of sporting clubs ensures that more people are able to get involved in sport and enjoy the benefits it provides.

“I look forward to continuing to support sporting clubs across the Robertson electorate and removing the barriers to sport participation.”

Seggie said the club community will benefit greatly from the funding.

“The funding announced will ensure that the club can train more coaches and referees to meet the growing numbers of players in our teams,” he said.

“This is a great support, and we look forward to continuing to grow the capacity of Gosford City Football Club.”
