DOVETON Football and Netball Club have moved a step closer to having floodlights installed at Robinson Recreation Reserve.
The funding for the project is being sourced through Sport and Recreation Victoria’s Country Football and Netball Program.
The City of Casey has submitted the grant application that, if successful, will enable the $133,000 project to go ahead.
Night football games will be possible under the new lighting proposed.
A council report noted the existing lighting was inadequate.
“An inspection of the floodlighting has identified that the wooden poles and light fittings currently servicing the football oval are nearing the end of their lifespan and the training lights associated with the netball court are insufficient to meet the training needs of the netball players,” the report stated.
