The KDCC also won the Club Championship in the 2014/15 season, driven by very strong performances in all grades.
The KDCC pride themselves on a very successful junior set-up in the club. Being based in one of the fastest growing municipalities in Australia only helps. The benefits of fostering this local junior talent are coming to bare already, with the recent Club Championship paying tribute to the depth of playing talent within the club.
