Construction can now commence on the Hands Oval Pavilion redevelopment project after the State Government signed off on its $8 million financial assistance agreement with the City of Bunbury.

The existing facility is being demolished and a new pavilion will be constructed featuring sustainable, inclusive, multi-purpose sports facilities and grandstand seating.

On completion, Hands Oval will be able to accommodate year-round sport, recreation and community activity including major events, and will be capable of accommodating pre-season AFL and AFLW games.

Total funding for the project is $17.42 million with other contributions from the Australian Government, the City of Bunbury and the South West Football League.

Construction is expected to be completed by May 2024.
