Improve the standard of Sutherland Shire sports fields. To allow play in wet weather


Improve the standard of Sutherland Shire sports fields. To allow play in wet weather
The issue
The Sutherland shire has 19000 registered soccer players and 5500 registered rugby league players. Out of a population of 220000 this represents 10% of residents.
The recent wet weather has seen a significant number of games missed due to the field conditions. This is not an issue in European countries and our southern states.
There has been a significant neglect of grass fields in the recent past, with preference given to synthetic fields which benefits a minority.
Sign the petition to encourage the Sutherland Shire Council to spend OUR money and prioritise playing surface infrastructure to allow play in wet weather.
