It's been talked about for years, but it's time to get Ovals 7 & 8 developed.

 

Each season, 25,000 kids use the existing ovals for AFL alone, and with the growth in girls and women's participation in AFL on top of demand in cricket, soccer and rugby, we need to unlock space for all clubs.

 

Local population growth hasn't been matched by the increase in sports infrastructure, so we need to get this done.

 

Investing in this development for our sporting clubs is an investment in community health, youth engagement, and personal development.

 

Sporting clubs are more than just venues for games; they serve as vital hubs for physical activity, social interaction, and personal growth for people of all ages.

 

Where social cohesion is being tested across the country, strong sporting clubs uphold the fabric of our community and promote an important sense of belonging.

 

Join me and send Canberra the clear message that we need Ovals 7 & 8 now!
