Football is a winter sport. The inclusiveness strategies adopted by TFNC allow all people within our community to attend as spectators to watch professional and popular football league matches. Like many Football clubs, infrastructure around the ground is lacking. This project proposes to construct a grandstand / pavilion that spectators can watch their teams play sport from a protected undercover area. The grandstand will be constructed with disability access in mind. It will cater for all segments of our community. It will also serve as a preferred undercover area during the same location.

Although football, netball and cricket are popular sports for spectators to watch, many times during the year, the weather creates a very uncomfortable environment. It is proposed that under a grandstand structure, spectators will be immune to weather conditions and will be able to watch sport and socialise with friends in an environment that will provide a comfortable experience.

Awesome community project. Weather is always so unpredictable in the southwest and this project would be utilized by so many various Tyrendarra Community groups all year round. This would also help the area grow having such a fantastic asset and create extra events with this grant.

As a club the Darras are an exception to the rule. With no township to speak of, the community is something to behold. Whether it is the mighty Football/Netball club who have been regular Grand Finalists in Football and Netball for decades, or the Tyrendarra Cricket Club which again is a regular Premiership contender in the PDCA, the Tennis Club which has great participation numbers and years of success. Add to that the Tyrendarra Rural Show, which continues to thrive year in year out.
The addition of an undercover area would add to to the infrastructure of the community hub, and provide a viewing area for all of the sporting and recreation clubs that utilise the Tyrendarra Recreation Reserve.
The Tyrendarra community has raised many funds to improve their facilities over the years, but there has to come a tipping point where extra financial support is needed; and it is needed now..

This is my local recreation reserve, the hub of my community! This shelter would benefit all our sporting clubs and our local annual show as well!

The Tyrendarra Show is one of the closest to our community and is a great event. What the venue currently lacks is sheltered seating to watch arena events. Of course, this structure would be a valuable addition during the football season.

This is an additional essential facility required to support the diverse range of activities provided to meaningfully engage many young local citizens.
