Goulburn’s Carr Confoy Park netball courts resurfacing complete

The $1.19 million resurfacing of netball courts at Carr Confoy Park in Goulburn has now been completed, with funding delivered from all levels of government and a local community sporting organisation.

The tender for the resurfacing was awarded in September 2023 to local company ARW Multigroup Pty Ltd.

The resurfacing was made possible with over $454,000 from the Australian Government under the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure (LRCI) Program, $639,998 from the NSW Government, $85,603 from Goulburn Mulwaree Council, and $10,000 from the Goulburn and District Netball Association.

The Carr Confoy netball courts is the home of the Goulburn and District Netball Association, which holds regular sporting competitions at the venue.

Its nine failing asphalt netball courts have been replaced with a safe asphalt and acrylic surface, improving the quality of the region’s netball facilities, and supporting increased female participation.

The netball courts are now up to competition standard, and will facilitate greater play for all ages and ability levels.

Mayor of Goulburn Mulwaree, Peter Walker noted “The provision of the upgraded netball courts in Goulburn will play a vital role in the vibrancy of our community sport.

“The resurfacing of the netball courts at Carr Confoy Park is a significant step towards creating an inclusive society with enhanced participation opportunities, regardless of age, gender, race, religion, or disability.

“This project will not only improve the quality of the netball experience but also contribute to the overall health and well-being of the community.”
