SUMMER SPORTS UPGRADE
Two exciting projects are set to revitalise Maryborough's Princes Park precinct over the coming months.
Three brand-new turf cricket pitches are being delivered at Princes Park which is welcome news for our local cricket community – including the Maryborough Cricket Club.
The project includes the removal of existing pitches, installing sub-surface drainage, upgrading irrigation, and construction of three new turf pitches on the oval.
The $190,000 project is being funded thanks to $50,000 from Council, $100,000 from the State Government and $40,000 from Cricket Australia with Shay Excavations to deliver the project.
At the Maryborough Tennis Centre, a major court redevelopment will commence shortly.
The project will deliver five new synthetic grass courts to replace the existing middle bank of grass courts.
This $523,000 project is jointly funded thanks to $400,000 from the Victorian Government, $71,700 from Council, $20,000 contribution from the Maryborough Tennis Centre and a $31,300 National Court Rebate.
The new courts are set to be completed by early 2026 and will complement the newly refurbished kitchen – also funded by Council.
Our Facilities and Maintenance team are now putting the finishing touches on the refurbishment of the Centre's kitchen.
