Major surface upgrades underway at Penrith’s Jamison Park Netball Courts   

Penrith Council has advised that vital upgrades at the Jamison Park Netball Courts include the resurfacing of 23 courts, which will significantly enhance playing conditions by reducing rainwater pooling, allowing players to get back on the courts sooner after wet weather. 

Drainage improvements are also underway, with upgrades to surrounding swales and the construction of a new asphalt swale to direct rainfall more effectively into the stormwater system.

Penrith Mayor Todd Carney highlighted the positive impact these upgrades will have on game days, for the netball community.

Mayor Carney noted “resurfacing and regrading the netball courts to better handle rain will greatly improve the playing conditions for netball players.

“Jamison Park Netball Complex is an integral hub for the Penrith sporting community. These upgrades will support local, district, and state netball competitions, as well as other major events.”

This project is being co-funded by the Australian Government through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure (LRCI) Program ($650,000) and Penrith City Council ($226,677).
