Primary Club of Australia Details
The Primary Club of Australia is a registered charity founded in 1974. \The fundamental aim is to give people with disabilities the opportunity to experience the joy and exhilaration that comes from any form of physical activity\A similar charity was formed in England over 50 years ago where a "primary" is a first ball dismissal in cricket—what is called a "golden duck" in Australia, as depicted in our logo\We raise money through annual subscription as well as having our members pay "fines" (as an optional donation) for every primary scored by an Australian player in test matches and one-day internationals during the previous year.\The club also holds many exciting sporting and social functions for members and their guests. These include golf days, a day at the races, plus breakfasts, luncheons, dinners and cocktail parties associated with Test and ODI matches and other functions, all of which are also attended by a number of well known sporting identities.\One of the highlights of our social calendar is the Golden Duck Dinner held to thank our Golden Duck supporters and those Australian cricketers who have achieved golden ducks. It is also the occasion for the presentation of the Sir Roden Cutler Award to the person nominated for his or her success in, or contribution to, disabled sport.\The Primary Club of Australia is a "charities charity", as funds are made available to other registered charities to enable the purchase of sporting and recreational equipment and facilities for people with disabilities.\Nearly $4 million has been raised to date and donated to many projects that include for example the purchase of specialized playground equipment, wheelchairs for various wheelchair sports, special equipment for blind cricketers, horse-riding arenas for riding for the disabled, hydrotherapy pools and specialized yachts for Sailability.
