New synthetic multipurpose field tender awarded

Works will cost $1.16 million and will include a new synthetic surface, lighting, fencing, footpaths and drainage. The new multipurpose field will be ideal for a number of sports including hockey and soccer providing an all-purpose wet weather training venue.

These works will be funded by the Australian Government and Greater Shepparton City Council.

The overall Greater Shepparton Regional Sports Precinct is a $19m redevelopment; this investment will establish the precinct as a nationally significant sporting complex. The redevelopment will enhance Council’s ability to secure and retain new major sporting events and national championships that might normally be held in capital cities or interstate.

Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Dinny Adem said “The multipurpose field will be great for a number of sporting groups. The works will be undertaken by Tuff Turf N Co, the same company that delivered our amazing new synthetic hockey field”.
