Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams took to the soccer field in a friendship match between the Doveton Special Soccer School and some representatives of the Victorian Labor government, including Luke Donellan MP, Shaun Leane MP, Jackson Taylor MP, Matt Fregon MP\u00a0as well\u00a0former Federal Member for Bruce, Alan Griffin.<\/p>

The MP\u2019s side\u00a0took part in a lively match at Soccer5s in Dandenong South and went up against\u00a0the Doveton side in a fun but tiring tussle.<\/p>

Ms Williams together with the School\u2019s Founder and Director, Juan Carlos Loyola OAM, organised the match as a celebration to coincide with the Doveton Special Soccer School\u2019s trip\u00a0to China\u00a0and as a way to raise awareness of the school\u2019s valuable work.<\/p>

The Doveton Special Soccer School gives opportunities to intellectually disabled children and adults across Victoria to play soccer, develop skills and make new friends. The School has been run tirelessly by Mr Loyola for over 25 years with the assistance of volunteers, parents and community support.<\/p>

\u201cThe School is a credit to our local community. It ensures that people of all abilities have an opportunity to engage in physical activity, and benefit from the social rewards of playing team sport\u201d, Ms Williams said.<\/p>

The match ended\u00a05-4 in favour of the DSSS, with both teams enjoying some pizzas and formal presentation following the match.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
