Quotes attributable to Senator Tony Sheldon

Bellingara netball courts have serviced the local netball community for decades. This investment by the Albanese Labor government will increase sustainability, decrease the running costs of floodlights, and ensure the facility is enjoyed by the community for years to come.  

Quotes attributable to Simon Earle

When we think of netball here in Cook, we think of Bellingara. It’s an incredible facility and this much needed upgrade of lighting will maximise utilisation of the courts, while prioritising the safety of players, officials, volunteers and spectators.
