Watsonia Heights Soccer Club is home to almost 100 Senior Men and Senior Women players. We all share the same ground for training and games, and the lighting currently is not sufficient to accommodate each team.
An upgrade to the lighting would mean an upgrade to our current facilities, which in turn would allow the club to grow further.

The majority of our senior players live very locally. Community connection is an integral part of one's general wellbeing. Watsonia Heights Football Club aims to benefit members, players and supporters by providing a local, community sporting club.
The ground is a public park and is not locked at any stage in the year. Members of the local community have access to and use of the ground.

Important upgrade to keep our players and coaches save and give our growing club better training facilities to accommodate all team trainings

This is an absolute must !! Our lighting is key to the growth of the club and will also encourage community growth from young upcomers as well as current long term memebers.

An important upgrade to improve the health and safety of players and coaches, a fundamental for community sport. Currently, training nights are certainly compromised from a sporting point of view.
The lighting is significantly below the average standard across all sports in the surrounding suburbs.
Hoping that for all participants the awareness fuels progressive action.

Thank you for taking this initiative, Tony.

Community sporting clubs are such an important place for young men and women to have access to. Upgrading of facilities will be an asset to the club and its programs.

Adding the 4th will greatly help the club as half the ground is very poorly lit
