PROUDLY SUPPORTING THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

Supporting Local Businesses and Sporting Groups

At Drummoyne Sailing Club, community is at the heart of everything we do. Through our corporate partnership program, we work closely with local businesses to create mutually beneficial opportunities that drive connection.

Our valued business partners include:

  • Stanmore Mazda

  • Akasha Brewing Co

  • Gladesville Bridge Marina

In addition to fostering business partnerships, we actively support local sporting groups by providing facilities, sponsorship, and resources to help them thrive. These groups include:

  • Drummoyne Rugby Club

  • Iron Cove Cricket Club

  • Drummoyne Fishing Club

This commitment complements our core values of supporting and promoting sailing at our club. From nurturing the next generation of sailors through our academy to hosting competitive regattas and community sailing events, we are dedicated to the growth and excellence of sailing in our area.
