Lily D’AMBROSIO (Mill Park – Minister for Climate Action, Minister for Energy and Resources, Minister for the State Electricity Commission) (09:43): I am excited for the future of young people in my electorate. Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending the Northern District Softball Association’s end-of-season awards ceremony in Mill Park. Meeting so many talented young athletes was inspiring, and it was an honour to recognise and celebrate their achievements. I am especially proud that local Hannah Scott has been selected to join Aussie Spirit, the Australian women’s national softball team. We all hope she will end up representing our country at the next Olympic Games. Additionally, I want to congratulate Matthew Bedwell and Ethan Scott, who have been chosen for the men’s under-23 and men’s under-18 national teams respectively. I want to thank the wonderful committee led by president Chaminda Fernando alongside Jacinta Byrne and Paula Laudani, who commit countless hours to volunteering in our community, not to mention the families who make it all possible.
