I acknowledge and applaud the courageous efforts of volunteers from the Austral Soccer Club. On Saturday 27 July there was a high impact car accident opposite the Austral's home ground, where a ute collided with a bus. The bus made two full 360-degree turns in the middle of one of the busier intersections in my area. While one woman was taken to hospital as a precaution, thankfully nobody was seriously injured, with everyone involved very lucky to come out of this horrific accident unscathed. Committee members from the club immediately called emergency services and rushed to the scene. They provided first aid to both drivers, and passengers on the bus, as well as initiating a road clean‑up before emergency services arrived. Their quick response and selfless actions undoubtedly made a significant difference in ensuring the safety and wellbeing of those involved in the incident and the wider community. Austral Soccer Club and all those who assisted should be incredibly proud of their actions. The Leppington community is extremely proud of you.
