Major sports ground upgrade

The new undercover seating area.

Snowy Monaro Regional Council has successfully completed major upgrades at Jindabyne’s major recreation and sporting ground – John Connors Oval.

Funded under the NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund – Round 2, Wollongong-based contractor Davone Constructions performed the work to overhaul this vital community facility.

The project saw the gut and refurbishment of the home and away changerooms, which were in a state of disrepair with significant mould issues.

A new undercover seating area with lighting has also been built to protect players and spectators from the sun, rain and snow.

The response from the Jindabyne and wider Snowy Monaro sporting community has been overwhelmingly positive, with athletes and supporters alike enjoying the benefits of a safe and modern sporting facility.

Plans for these upgrades have been in place since 2019 and Snowy Monaro Regional Council extends thanks to the NSW Government for their support.
