SKG Sponsors Gwawley Bay

Gwawley Bay are proud to announce the continuation of SKG Cleaning Services as the major sponsor of our club for the 2009 Season.

Canberra Road Gets Synthetic Grass

In what was a surprising move the Council has decided to trial a synthetic grass surface on the cricket pitch at Canberra Road. The synthetic grass requires no maintenance and will stay all year round. No more bumpy bit in the middle of the field.

The grass has already been laid and is in use over summer by the cricketers. Thanks to the Sutherland Shire Council for choosing our field.
