The Broadbeach Cats AFL club has a thriving female program across all ages. However, their current changeroom facilities are outdated and no longer fit-for-purpose. Federal LNP Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell MP, said the Broadbeach AFL club has seen participation numbers skyrocket, and the female changerooms are well overdue for an upgrade.

Well, thank you. How is the election campaign going?
A Dutton LNP Government will provide $235,000 to upgrade the facilities at the Southport Pony and Hack Club. The iconic club hosts several equine events in Southport including agistment overflow for the Magic Millions – an event that generates great economic benefit for the Gold Coast region. Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell MP, said current facilities are no longer safe to use and the Southport Pony and Hack Club deserves better.
An elected Dutton Liberal National Government will help make the Gold Coast a safer place with a $250,000 commitment for an important early intervention youth program. The funding, to be provided from a revitalised Safer Communities Fund (SCF), will be provided to the ‘It’s a Wrap’ program, which supports youth who are at risk of engaging in criminal or anti-social behaviour. Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell MP, said this funding would help to ensure the Gold Coast community feels safe as they go about their daily lives.
The Mudgeeraba Nerang Cricket Club, in the heart of the Gold Coast, has a proud 100-year history in our community, with a 300 strong membership base. Over the last decade, the club’s female membership has grown significantly, and as a result, the club requires upgraded changerooms to cater for more women’s teams. LNP Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell MP, said the project would greatly benefit the community, providing inclusive amenities for all.
Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell MP, has today announced that an elected Liberal National Government will deliver $20,000 in funding for the Surfers Paradise Rugby Union Club, (the Dolphins) to improve club facilities.
Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell, has announced that an elected Liberal National Government will deliver $49,000 in funding for upgrades at the Southport Sharks AFL club, including a new first aid hut and two player boxes.
KIERAN GILBERT:
Let’s bring in the Liberal frontbencher Angie Bell, a proud Queenslander. Let’s start with the Olympics. You must be happy to see there’s bipartisan sort of cooperation there, regardless of who’s in power federally and at the state level, that finally we will start to see some progress towards 2032, Angie?
ANGIE BELL:
Well yes, of course. We’re very excited about hosting the 2032 Olympics here in South East QLD. But I will say that the Prime Minister didn’t highlight those three years lost under the Labor government here in Queensland.
Gold Coasters deserve to feel safe and be safe in their home and within the local community. Only a Dutton-led Coalition government will get Australia back on track by tackling crime and making our communities safer. True to the Coalition’s values and commitment to community safety, Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell, has announced $15,000 in funding for the Nerang Girl Guides to construct a new perimeter fence to secure their premises.
With sporting clubs across the Gold Coast being neglected under Labor, Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell, has today announced a $286,800 commitment for upgrades to the Griffith University Knights’ facilities, if a LNP Government is elected.
