Waverley Baseball Club has been winning championships and developing state and national representatives for more than 65 years. But just as important, the club works hard to be part of the local community.
"We're not just about baseball; we're about the community. Building a sense of connection with other people," club president Andrew Ferguson said.
"We resurrected our women's team five years ago, and it's expanded to the point where we are now fielding three teams. Family is also important. One year we had a grandfather, son and grandson play together in the same team."
Already boasting 280 players, Waverley is now holding special events to involve Monash's Indian, Chinese and Sri Lankan communities.
To help clubs like Waverley Baseball Club do their best work, we are updating our Sports Club Framework.
To access Council facilities, clubs must agree to uphold behaviour standards, not promote gambling, and have a Child Safe Policy and Working with Children Checks (where required). Clubs can access cheaper fees by going beyond these minimum standards.
