Overview
It’s exciting news for Gloucester sports fans as the grandstand in the Gloucester Recreation Centre is being retrofitted with a new seating structure, allowing for approximately 478 seats in the structure, new steps and handrails and an accessible seating area.
The project was proposed by Gloucester Rugby League Football Club, and is supported by the Gloucester District Sports Committee (comprising of clubs: soccer, triathlon, hockey, netball, gymnastics, rugby league, rugby union, cricket, croquet, swimming, bowling, basketball, tennis, rifle and pistol, Little Athletics, Australian Stock Horse Association, pony, and archery). In addition this project is supported by Gloucester and Barrington High Schools, Country Rugby League NSW and Church on the Hill.
Status
Redesign is complete, with extra accessible seating on both sides of the stadium now incorporated. Works are underway, with completion of the grandstand planned for early 2023.
