Wyndham residents are invited to name Western United’s new training facility which will soon open in Tarneit.
Located in the the Wyndham Stadium Precinct, the Regional Football
Facility (interim name) will feature state-of-the-art training facilities, a two storey pavillion and capacity for 5,000 spectators.
Once complete the facility will host matches in the upcoming A-League season and long-term will become the training base for the Western United Football Club.
A public vote will be held to determine the name of the facility and the pavilion, but first the community will be asked to choose their preferred theme.
Linking the name to a place, ),
using commemorative names,
gender equality and
recognition and use of Traditional Owner languages are the four naming themes on offer.
Once the theme is chosen, names aligning with that theme will be proposed.
Wyndham councillor Peter Maynard said the beginning of naming process meant the facility in Tarneit was another step closer.
“We look forward to Western United Football Club moving in and having a training
base in the Wyndham Stadium Precinct,” he said.
The Regional Football Facility will also provide important opportunities for our local
community with the ability to host major regional competitions for rectangular pitch
sports, coaching clinics, professional development sessions and more.”
