An upgrade to the cricket nets for the Laurimar Recreation Reserve would help the Laurimar Cricket Club and the local community by providing a safe and practical facility to accommodate club training needs and encourage greater informal cricket play for the greater community. The current cricket nets are incorrectly positioned, which forces batters to look directly into the sun. This poses a safety risk as players are unable to see the ball and can often be subject to injuries caused by impaired vision through sun glare.

Benefit to the local community comes in the form of state-of-the-art facilities to help aid our young and upcoming players of the local area to train to the best of their ability. To become the best sportsperson they can. The new nets will be installed as safely as possible. These nets will allow not only club players, including the juniors, seniors, women's and veterans, but the local community, to enjoy playing an iconic national sport that brings communities and cultures together across the world creating unity across the community.

Dangeeous for the school it faces, and the children near them, also dangerous for batsmen/women looking west into the sun...they need to be relocated to avoid both of these dangers

Very dangerous net structure for the school kids currently, when batting u hit the ball straight at the school! Needs to be changed! High priority!!!

"Sc"जागरूकता घोटाला" एक अच्छा विचार है जिसे सभी उम्र के लिए राष्ट्रव्यापी लागू किया जाना चाहिए। क्या कमाल का तरीका है!ams awareness" is a great idea that should be implemented nationwide for all ages. What a great idea!

Great to see your club getting involved to benefit the community. I see so many parents with their children in these structures not only for cricket. This is definitely something that will benifit the school as well. Great idea Laurimar C.C
