Laurimar Cricket Nets

• Project value$200,000
• Completion Date13 June 2024

Works started at the end of January 2024 to dismantle and replace the existing nets at the southern end of Laurimar Recreation Reserve, which is home to Laurimar Cricket Club.

The three-bay cricket net facility is now fully enclosed, reducing the risk of errant balls hitting passersby, properties or cars travelling along the Painted Hills Road.

The nets were also reoriented to prevent batters from looking into the afternoon sun when facingg up to bowlers, while new matting and extended run-ups were installed.

The project was funded through a $100,000 contribution from the City of Whittlesea and $100,000 from Sport and Recreation Victoria.
