Design
The design for the development propose a new pavilion on the western boundary with 500 undercover grandstand seats, a 200m2 multi-purpose space for community use, and compliant amenities. This would accommodate an increase in football participation, particularly by female teams, and to meet National Premier League (NPL) standards.
The development of the new pavilion requires the upgrade of sports floodlighting infrastructure (30m poles) around the main pitch which would be designed to Australian Standards.
The new pavilion and grandstand supports the club’s goals to:
- continue competing in the NPL
- cater for a female team
- host men’s and women’s double-headers
The project includes a multi-purpose space that would be managed by Council so the football club’s needs would be met on training and match days, and broader community groups would benefit at other times from the use of this space.
