Partridge Recreation Reserve

• Project value$2.3 million
• Project scheduleSeptember 2024 to early 2025

Partridge Recreation Reserve's grass pitch is being upgraded to a FIFA-accredited synthetic surface, after the project was awarded a contract at its Council Meeting on Tuesday 21 May 2024.

The project will see the existing grass playing surface on the eastern pitch replaced with a synthetic pitch, doubling usage from 20 hours a week to more than 40 hours a week. This will benefit not only the soccer community but give greater opportunity for nearby residents, community groups and other sports to use the facilities.

The project will include a range of sustainability measures, including energy-efficient LED lighting, Councils' first synthetic pitch with an organic infill product, as well as the installation of a 25mm thick rubber shocked underlay that is estimated to divert approximately 75 tonnes of plastic waste and 70 tonnes of rubber waste from landfill.
