Grassroots soccer, cricket, netball, and tennis players in Tarneit North will soon have more courts and fields to take their game to the next level thanks to works now underway at Polly Parade Reserve.
On Thursday June 6, Tarneit MP Dylan Wight joined
Wyndham mayor Jennie Barrera to officially start works at the site which are funded by $750,000 package from the state government.
The current stage one works will deliver three turf soccer pitches complete with lighting, with two of the pitches located within a larger oval for cricket. There are also six tennis courts on the way. Stage two works will include a new sports pavilion. Once complete the new facilities will complement the children’s play space and the BBQ and picnic area recently completed at the reserve. The new fields and courts will serve both new and existing clubs in the area, while nearby schools also able to access the new facilities for sports and casual play.
Speaking at the launch of works on June 6, Mr Wight said Polly Parade Reserve would prove to be valuable addition to rapidly growing area.
“With more families moving into the Tarneit North community, this new sports precinct will provide a great new base for new clubs and locals to play the sports they love,” he said.
Works at the new precinct are expected to be finished by mid-2026.
