The project received $192,333 in funding through the State Government's Community Sporting and Recreation Facilities Fund (CSRFF), delivering important upgrades that will help ensure the facility continues to support local sport and recreation for years to come.
Delivered as part of the Western Australian Government's PlayOn WA initiative, the redevelopment has transformed the ageing amenities building with modern, accessible and more functional facilities for local clubs and community members.
Upgrades include modern changerooms with individual lockable shower cubicles, compliant male and female toilets with ambulant cubicles and the addition of a universal access toilet with a baby change table.
The project also delivered new storage areas with individual lockable compartments for clubs, additional shelter and veranda space for players and spectators, and improved security features including a new roller door, security grills, doors and fittings.
Importantly, the upgraded changerooms and amenities will provide a more welcoming and accessible environment for women and girls, supporting increased participation in community sport.
Originally built in 1981, the previous amenities building was structurally sound but no longer met modern expectations for accessibility, comfort and functionality.
The upgraded facilities support a range of local users including the Montrose Park Tennis Club, Vietnamese RSL Tennis Club, Vietnamese Sunday Tennis Club and social tennis players, making the project an important investment in meeting the needs of the Girrawheen community.
