Changeroom upgrades approved for Kingsway Football and Sporting Club

The City undertook a structural building assessment of the facility in 2023, at which point the changerooms were deemed to no longer meet the needs of local clubs, the growing number of spectators, or current accessibility standards.

Mayor Linda Aitken said the upgrades to the changeroom facility, which was first built in 1978, would benefit a vast number of clubs and participants.

“We are pleased to support all six different clubs and associations who use these facilities for AFL, cricket and athletics,” she said.

“We’re committed to helping our local sporting clubs, and we know these much-needed upgrades will also benefit spectators and improve accessibility.  

“This upgrade, in addition to the incoming modular changerooms, will have long lasting benefits for all users, especially female athletes.”

Once constructed, the changeroom will include a Universal Accessible Toilet, umpire facilities and additional toilets, along with a general refurbishment of the facility.

The oval will also be home to a separate modular changeroom facility, with Council also awarding the tender for design and construction to Ausco Modular at its August meeting.
