• Re-sizing and realignment of the two existing playing fields.
• A new synthetic cricket pitch and cricket practice nets.
• New field irrigation and drainage with an additional water harvesting tank.
• New sportsfield lighting to all fields.
• Ball stop fencing.
• Sandstone Retaining wall construction with planting and bush regeneration works.

Current Works:

• Continued retaining wall construction.
• Bulk earthworks.
• Spoil removal.
• Underground service installation.
