Penrith’s Jamison Park netball courts renewed in time for upcoming season

The $876,000 renewal of Penrith’s Jamison Park netball courts which included resurfacing of 23 courts and delivering drainage improvements to the complex, has been completed in time for the upcoming netball season.

The project was supported by $650,000 from the Federal Government under the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program (LRCI) and over $225,000 from Penrith City Council.

These upgrades will improve the playing conditions for competitors and create a greater experience for their supporters to spectate.

The resurfaced courts and the construction of a new asphalt swale will help to ensure rainwater is directed away from the courts.

This will assist games to resume sooner after wet weather, reducing disruptions to the netball season.

In addition to these works, Penrith City Council is also in the final stages of installing new netball hoops, with the remaining ones set to be in place before the start of the netball season.

Penrith Mayor Todd Carney noted “Jamison Park Netball Courts are a vital part of our city.

“These upgrades will support the thousands of people that use these courts every week during netball season.
