15 teams, over 400 children, one ground to facilitate all, 130 Auskickers, help local schools for their usage as well as our own. Local cricket club usage and netball club.
For training safety, night games, visibility.
Due to the poor lighting at the current time we are in danger of children's visibility on cold dark frosty nights for training, and night games are deemed non viable. As a result our club's revenue is compromised due to council/league not allowing this to happen due to our lighting problem.
We have spoken to the AFL, local government and local football governor.
Our childrens safety is most important. More available light equals more available training times. Schools and our clubs can use the ground more often as we can spread the load of trainings and night games, freeing up the ground for others to use this for weekend usage. More revenue equals more for our children equals money to go to education/facility upgrade. Eg; kitchen and change rooms

All kids should have the option to play sport day and night. This funding is vitally important for our community at Yarrambat.

Please get behind this project!!!!
The Yarrambat sports community has been under financed for years now and this would really help improve the usage of Yarrambat War Memorial Park. Participation will also improve as night games for juniors can be played.

With the amount of children for one oval, safety for our children is very important and training with these lights is dangerous to say the least. Come on Everton at Yarrambat get behind this for our kids.
