On Tuesday 14 October, an incident occurred at the Club where a person attacked two construction contractors, allegedly with a knife.

Thanks to the swift response of the Queensland Police Service the individual involved, who had left the premises, was quickly apprehended. Construction contractors on site and Queensland Ambulance Service paramedics provided immediate assistance to those affected. We are grateful for the professionalism and care of all who assisted.

I also want to thank and commend the team at Frenchville Sports Club who dealt with the situation calmly and professionally.

We appreciate your understanding as our team takes time to process yesterday’s incident. Please note that staff are unable to discuss the matter due to an ongoing investigation.

As well, thank you to the many members of the Club and the community who have contacted us to support our team following this difficult situation. This show of support highlights the true spirit of our Club as we continue to serve our members and the community.
