Community sport in Geelong is set to benefit from a major lighting upgrade at Richmond Oval, creating new opportunities for players, clubs and families across the region.
The modern lighting system will allow for more night matches, expanded training sessions and increased participation opportunities, particularly for women and girls.
Local sporting clubs will be able to host more community events while providing greater flexibility for junior programs and growing participation levels.
Importantly, the upgrade will help create stronger pathways for young female athletes, supporting the continued growth of women’s sport in Geelong.
Projects like this demonstrate the ongoing investment being made into community infrastructure and highlight the important role sport plays in bringing people together, promoting healthy lifestyles and building stronger local communities.
The improved facilities are expected to make Richmond Oval an even more vibrant hub for community activity for years to come.
