Club Doncaster Chief Executive Liam Scully said, ”In our world, the Sport and Recreation Alliance is as prestigious as it gets. Over the past few years we have been proud of our achievement in gaining a number of local and regional awards, however, it is nice to finally go that one step further and land national recognition”
“I would like to take the opportunity to recognise all of our dedicated team members who are the real champions. They consistently go above and beyond in support of helping others and often their hard work goes unseen. I would also like to thank our trustees and partners who are equally supportive and challenging of the Foundation in advance of driving us on to new heights”
