CCA Director Alicia Quirk takes us inside 7s camp
The 5th leg of the Women's World Series saw the Australian Womens Sevens team head to Langford, Victoria in Canada. We were currently sitting 4th overall on the World Series Ladder, with the top 4 teams this season earning automatic qualification for the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
We left Sydney on Sunday 5th May and arrived in Canada the same date via 2 flights. Whilst travelling we try as hard as possible to adjust ourselves to our arriving destination’s time zone in order to reduce any side effects of jetlag.

Great visit to bankwest stadium
Come and Try Wheelchair Experience
We recently headed out to Bankwest Stadium for charity round with The Waratahs and joined with our friends at Wheelchair Sports NSW to provide a 'come and try' experience on the way into the Stadium. If you have not made it out to Bankwest yet, it is worth a visit.
Showcasing how we help
As well as having the chance to showcase Cauliflower Club in the program and on the screens at the Stadium, we were able to bring along the car presented to Royal Rehab at our last lunch for their Return2Drive program to showcase this and the wheelchairs provided to WSNSW to help share the value of our organisation and the generosity of our members. CCA Director Dean Mumm joined in the action proudly wearing his coveted CCXV jersey.
Great support
Huge thanks to WSNSW and GIO NSW Gladiators squad members from L to R: Mark Leslie, Daniel Clarke, Harry Clist, Alex Partington, Jake Field, Simon Bartlett, Ben Leaudais who joined CCA Directors Rob Horne, Dean Mumm and Alison Nolan at the event.
If you want to provide your support to the Gladiators - you can check them out at the 2019 Wheelchair Rugby National Championships June 28-30 at Quay Centre, Sydney Olympic Park.
New adapted pool table for Sargood on Collaroy
CCA purchased an adapted pool table and presented it to Sargood on Collaroy where Terri and Rebecca showed off their pool shark skills. The table has proven hugely popular and has led to some late night socialising, We were touched by the story of one guest at Sargood who said it was the first time he had been able to teach his son something that they could do together
NEW PARTNERSHIP
Scrum Strong | Neck Protech
Cauliflower Club was delighted to be approached by Sam Needs with the offer for proceeds from the Neck Protech initiative to be donated to CCA.
Neck Protech is a proactive solution for reducing the risk of suffering a life changing neck injury on the rugby field. It is the only solution in Australian rugby that focusses on prevention rather than reaction executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.
You can check out more information and purchase a copy at https://scrumstrong.com/neckprotech/
CCA honoured by reception
The Cauliflower Club were delighted to be hosted for a reception by His Excellency General the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove AK MC (Retd )) Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia and Her Excellency Lady Cosgrove. The weather was spectacular and we were delighted to celebrate the work of the Cauliflower Club in such wonderful company and surroundings.
