It’s official – March 2022 was Sydney’s wettest on record.
This has, and continues to, heavily impact the use of our sport and recreational areas to the Bayside sporting clubs, associations and the community.
Council has been working tirelessly to attempt to prepare these areas for use however, the weather continues to hinder the preparation of all sport and recreational areas across the Sydney basin.
Over the next week (weather dependent) Council will continue with the preparation of sporting fields, with the mowing and marking out of fields, and installation of goal posts. As the sub-base is still saturated, this has unfortunately resulted in the fields having to remain closed over the weekend (2 and 3 April).
Council makes these decisions on behalf of the community, to ensure that the playing surface is ready and fit for purpose to deliver quality sporting grounds that are able to last the duration of the entire season.
All natural turf fields will remain closed up to and including Tuesday 5 April 2022.
Council appreciates your understanding and cooperation during this unprecedented time.
