The securing of the 2032 Games for Australia in Brisbane and south east Queensland taking in, of course, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast is a great result for Australia and a great boost at a time when Australians around the country, particularly in southern states, are doing it tough as we battle through this most recent episode we’re going through in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic.
There’ll be kids who are turning up at the Valley Pool in Brisbane this morning and all around the country doing their training knowing they put those laps in that they – they might be able to compete in an Olympic Games held in Australia, and that is just such a thrilling idea, a thrilling notion. That kids around the country, whether they’re playing hockey or are swimmers or whatever they happen to be, that they can look forward to that. It’s a great boost for Australian sport.
