Leagues Club awards pool pass

Woy Woy Leagues Club has awarded a yearly pass for the Peninsula Leisure Centre on Blackwall Rd to one of its under-9 rugby league players.

Lucky winner was Lachlan Bourke from Woy Woy South Primary School.

Woy Woy Leagues Club won the yearly pass to the new pool complex in the Central Coast Community Chest's Big Splash promotion.

Woy Woy Leagues Club CEO Mr Michael Creighton was faced with the dilemma of how to award the pass and decided to first choose a team and then a player from the team.

"With over 300 registered players in 23 teams it was a big task, so all teams were placed into a draw and the winning team was the Under 9s," said the club's administration officer Ms Keran Simpson.

"Of this team there are 30 players and the lucky winner was Lachlan Bourke from Woy Woy South Primary School.

"The year's pass was presented to Lachlan at a school assembly on Friday, September 23, by Chris Holstein, general manager of Central Coast Community Chest."

Also present to represent the club were Mr Creighton, Woy Woy Junior Rugby League Football Club president Mr Geoff Staunton, its seniors' football manger Mr Richard Smithers and coaching and development manager Mr John Jewiss.

Woy Woy South Primary School deputy principal Mr Kim Wheatley said the presentation and visit by Woy Woy Leagues Club officials was much appreciated by both staff and students.
