Forrestdale Sporting Precinct

(formerly Forrestdale Community Hub)

The Forrestdale Sporting Precinct, located at the corner of Armadale Road and Weld Street, is set to undergo redevelopment, commencing in late-2024—a long-awaited community project.

Forrestdale Sporting Pavilion - Stage 1

Construction commencing financial year 2024/25. Cost $6,081,500

  • A new sports pavilion that consolidates the current functions of Ian Pratt and William Skeet Pavilions.
  • Additional parking infrastructure.

Forrestdale Pavilion External Works

Construction commencing financial year 2026/27. Cost $1,965,000

Includes:

  • New multi-marked hardcourts.

The redeveloped Forrestdale Sporting Precinct holds the potential to become a valuable link and central hub for residents, sporting associations, and community groups. It will offer access to local services, activities, support structures, sporting facilities, equipment, and affiliations, providing opportunities for social and civic engagement. These services, networks, and physical assets work together to lay the foundation for a strong and empowered Forrestdale community.
