The Board, Members and Staff of Darkinjung Local Aboriginal Land Council (DLALC) would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to Darcy Smith on his selection in the NSW Under 19s State of Origin Squad.

This is a tremendous achievement and a testament to Darcy's hard work, dedication, talent and commitment to rugby league. His selection to represent New South Wales on one of rugby league's biggest stages is a proud moment for his family, the Darkinjung Community, and all those who have supported him throughout his journey.

We would also like to acknowledge and congratulate Darcy's proud family, especially his grandmother Cathie Sinclair, his mother Belynda Sinclair, and his father Duncan Smith. This outstanding achievement reflects not only Darcy's determination and perseverance, but also the unwavering support, encouragement and guidance provided by his family and community over many years.

As a proud young man connected to the Darkinjung Community, Darcy's success is an inspiration to our young people and a shining example of what can be achieved through hard work, commitment and belief in yourself. His achievement is one that our entire community can celebrate with pride.

On behalf of the Board, Members, Staff and the wider Darkinjung Community, we wish Darcy every success as he pulls on the Blues jersey and represents New South Wales with pride.
Congratulations Darcy – we are incredibly proud of you and will be cheering you on every step of the way! 💙🏉
