WPH Lions Football Club registrations

We support all local Sporting groups within our community and have a great relationship with our community sporting colleagues from other Codes. Our relationship with the Lions goes back to when they started in 1969 with members of the West Penno Cricket Club playing a key part in setting up the Club.

Our shared passion is to see more children playing organised sport for Community Clubs – in winter and summer.

With the Women’s World Cup being played in Australia this year it is a wonderful opportunity to promote the opportunities for Girls to play Football.

Registrations are now Open for the 2022-23 season via Lions Football for everyone aged Under 6s to over 40’s.

CNSW News

Women’s Social Cricket – starting on 1 February

Great news about the highly successful Women’s Social Cricket Smash starting up again in February. Details are:

• When:                    Wednesday 1 February to 15^th March 2023
• Where:                   Mark Taylor Oval, Waitara
• Time:                      6.00 pm to 7.30 pm
• Cost:                      $70 for 7 weeks

The Social Smash will be the first time Mark Taylor Oval will be used since the $10m redevelopment upgrade has been completed.

What is the Social Smash

For those new to this concept it is as much about having a game of cricket with other women in a safe and non-judgemental environment as it is about laying out a blanket on the ground after the game and sharing a glass of wine and nibbles with friends and new found friends without having to rush home.
