Ray Owen Reserve playing fields expansion underway
Work is underway to deliver a new playing field and upgraded facilities at Ray Owen Reserve in Lesmurdie, supported by a $5 million investment from the WA Government
Funded through the WA Recovery Plan, the project will deliver a new playing field alongside the existing oval and upgrades to current facilities.
New floodlighting will also be installed to support evening training and competition across both ovals, which will be irrigated with new sustainable water infrastructure.
Accessible changeroom upgrades were completed at the reserve earlier this year to support inclusive sport, paving the way for the playing field expansion to begin as part of the venue masterplan.
A new scoreboard will also be installed for the Mazenod Junior Football Club, supported by a $50,000 WA Governement commitment.
The project is being delivered as part of the State Government's PlayOn WA: 2030 by 2030 initiative which is guiding investment in sport and recreation infrastructure across the State.
PlayOn WA will deliver 2030 community sport and recreation infrastructure items across WA by the year 2030, helping to deliver a lasting and positive impact across WA communities.
