Our Community
Our business is a family business (several families in fact), and all local to the Shire, so our community is very important to us.
We have been proud to support the following local community initiatives:
Lakewood Sister Cities
Since 1978, Lakewood Sister Cities has sponsored a High School Student Exchange program with the Sutherland Shire in Sydney, Australia. Ours is a unique "twin" program: American students are paired with an Australian student & family. The Australian spends the first semester in the USA with the American student and family, then both students return to Australia for the second semester.
Snowy Ride
The Snowy Ride is a motorcycle event run annually in the Alpine Region of NSW with the aim of involving motorcycle riders from all over Australia to raise money for Childhood Cancer Research. It is also an opportunity for riders to enjoy a weekend away with their friends and family and to ride some of Australia’s best and most picturesque roads.
Gymea Netball
We sponsor the Netball newsletter and their annual trivia night. The last trivia night was a huge success and everyone involved had a fantastic night. if you want to learn more about the Gymea Netball club why don't you visit their website.

Every team at Sportsworld is graded to their ability. We have competitions for the little ones - Starting from under 6's through to under 18's for boys, girls and mixed. We also have competitions for all senior levels. Our rebound Indoor Soccer competitions run all year round, so you can enter a team anytime!!
"Bay Babes" - Mother's Day Classic Fun Run
5 buses escorted the 270 "Bay Babes" into the Domain for the event. It was a wonderful sunny morning and seeing so many women banding together for such a great cause was really inspiring. Through the running of several raffles they raised over $6,500. This money will be donated to the Jane McGrath Foundation and the Breast Cancer Foundation.
