Sportsground lighting
Did you know in 2019, Council endorsed the ‘lighting up open space’ initiative which sees some of our sportsgrounds being lit up for night-time use outside of sports clubs allocations. This initiative lights up the below sportsgrounds during the months of April through to October.
| Park | Oval location | Days and times |
| Caulfield Park | Oval 2 — Oval near the pavilion on Inkerman Road side | Monday to Friday, 5pm to 9pm Availability may be impacted by casual bookings. |
| EE Gunn Reserve | Eastern oval — baseball side | Monday to Thursday, 8pm to 9pm Friday, 5pm to 9pm |
| Hodgson Reserve | Higgins Road oval | Monday to Friday, 5pm to 9pm |
Although we are unable to light up all our sporting ovals, we hope this initiative helps provide some night-time exercise for you during the darker periods.
The upgrade and maintenance of sportsground lighting is undertaken as per the sportsground lighting policy.
