Hockey

Saturday 6 May 2023 saw the first hockey matches played on the synthetic field ️🏑

The majority of the WORLD site remains a construction area. All visitors are asked to observe construction site signage and any directions from the contractor including following traffic management direction in the precinct during the works.

Other key information:

  • Portable toilets have been installed as an interim measure for hockey clubs’ use during game days.
  • The turf (grass) field is not ready for use. Electricity is required before we can finalise the irrigation system.
  • Temporary change rooms and amenities have arrived on site, and we are working on getting electricity connected before these can be used.
  • Permanent pavilion construction starts in the coming weeks.
  • Hockey lighting will be installed soon.


Netball

Work on the netball courts is progressing well. Handrails, lighting, marshal building, carpark and seating are on the go, and we will continue to work with the @Bairnsdale Netball Association on court availability date … it won’t be long!

We are working with our Federal and State Government funding partners and both the netball and hockey associations in planning a soft opening in the coming months when both user groups are using the site.
