Packer Park cricket net upgrades

We’re planning to upgrade the cricket training nets at Packer Park, Carnegie — to better meet the needs of our community and local cricket clubs.

We know offering our community ways to get outside, be active and stay fit and healthy is important for health, wellbeing and social connection, and helps to enhance their quality of life. 

That’s why we’re planning to upgrade the facilities. Subject to funding, proposed upgrades include:

  • five cricket training lanes
  • a multipurpose futsal goal
  • a basketball ring for recreational community use
  • relocating the golf practise facilities to the southern end of the cricket nets.


With increasing participation in cricket, particularly among juniors and women, these upgrades will provide a modern, safe, and accessible training space.

These upgrades are part of our commitment to improving access, quality and safety at our recreation facilities. It also aligns with our commitment to upgrading infrastructure that supports gender equitable access and participation by women and girls in community sport, in line with our Fair Access Policy.
