Spotlight on Joyce and Albert Green – Excellence in Volunteer Support

Albert and Joyce are a husband and wife team who have been running a golf program for over ten years. Joyce is the manager and Albert is the head coach. They have a son with intellectual disability and support others with intellectual disability to play sport weekly.

They have been involved in Special Olympics for over 20 years and take their athletes all over NSW to participate in competitions. Although they are now in their 70’s, they turn up to the Narrabundah range every week to ensure that the golfers get to practice their game. They also have a group of volunteers assisting them.

Last year, they won the Chief Minister's Inclusion Awards for Excellence in Volunteer Support for all the great work they do for the Canberra community. 

 

If you know a champion like Joyce and Albert, nominate them for the 2019 Awards now. 

Nominations close Monday 23 September at 5pm.
