What you should know about Mount Pritchard Lawn Bowls
Numerous men enjoying a beer in a hotel in Cabramatta had the idea to construct a workers style club that supported the social and sporting needs of the community. 47 years ago, Green Valley had not been released for housing commission development and Mt Pritchard was neither bush nor suburb. As the population of Mt Pritchard grew so too did the call for more leisure and sporting activities and thus, the need for more venues and meeting places. The first sporting clubs of the area were rugby league and cricket, both formed in 1927. Among the members of the cricket team were two of the White brothers Mortimer (Mitty) and Joe, brothers of Terry and Cecil who became Mt Pritchard District Community Club’s beginning president and inaugural committee member respectively. Of course for the men who liked a drink after work, the nearest hotel was at Cabramatta. The problem was that most women preferred not to go there and there was nothing to retain children entertained. What was needed was a social focal point for the developing Mt Pritchard community. The newcomers, together with the established residents of Mt Pritchard, decided to do something about it. The concept was born during a series of meetings conducted in the homes of interested parties. Debentures were struck and 300 (around 600) was raised toward the establishment of the Club. The dream became a reality when local resident, the slow Tom McAuliffe, offered a block of land in Meadows Road in exchange for debentures in the club. The funds raised by the debentures paid for the two ex government huts that became the clever club house. Despite the known need for a district community club felt by maximum local residents, there was a mighty opposition from local hotels, sporting clubs and the authorities. However, another four years passed earlier the courts granted the Club a liquor license. Looking at the Club today, the area that it commands and the millions of dollars of urge it provides to the community and 30 plus Sub Clubs, it is firm to imagine its unpretentious beginnings in the hasty 60's. A vision was turned into a reality that every member of Mt Pritchard District Community Club can be immensely arrogant of.
