Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan 2025
The Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan 2025 establishes the priorities for the development of sporting reserves across Ocean Grove and Wallington to ensure our community can participate in a diverse range of sport and recreation activities.
This update of the previous Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan (2010) identifies changes in sports participation, club needs and community demographics, all of which are driving the need for increased provision of sporting infrastructure.
The Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan provides a plan to improve the provision of infrastructure for community sport across Ocean Grove and Wallington.
Key objectives of the Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan 2025:
- Assess the adequacy of sporting infrastructure provision to meet the current and future needs of the Ocean Grove and Wallington community
- Examine trends in sports participation and the implications for sporting infrastructure needs
- Establish the sporting infrastructure development requirements to meet club, user group and community needs
- Update existing reserve master plans and develop master plans for new active open space
- Prepare a prioritised implementation plan for recommended projects
The key strategic pillars of the plan are:
- Facility Provision: The Ocean Grove and Wallington community has access to sports facilities that support future growth and provide a diversity of opportunities to participate
- Sustainable Clubs: Our clubs are successful and sustainable, with access to high quality facilities that meet user needs and enable efficient club operation
- Access & Inclusion: Our facilities are accessible and inclusive, creating more opportunities for all people to play, officiate, volunteer and spectate
The Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan 2025 identifies the need to retain existing facilities as well as provide additional infrastructure to support participation, including:
