Works are underway on the final stage of the Baldivis Sports Complex.
The $9 million project will include eight netball (multipurpose) hard courts, eight tennis courts with floodlighting, and a pavilion to service both the hardcourts and users of the southern grassed playing fields.
The outdoor recreation space will include accessible and sensory play, a ninja circuit and skatepark situated adjacent to the indoor sports complex.
City of Rockingham Mayor Deb Hamblin said the final stage was an essential part of the overall plan.
“From the outset, the vision for the BSC was to provide an innovative, contemporary, multipurpose sport and recreation facility that can accommodate a wide range of organised sport and informal recreation activities that significantly contribute towards improving the health and wellbeing of Baldivis and the wider Rockingham community”, she said.
Lotterywest has contributed $1 million towards the project.
“Lotterywest is proud to support the City of Rockingham with a grant towards the Baldivis Outdoor Recreation Space, which will raise community connection and participation in Baldivis and surrounding areas,” Lotterywest CEO Colin Smith said.
The final stage of the Baldivis Sports Complex is expected to be completed by December 2025.
