Kambah has a bitumen type of paint, it is good to seal the surface, but will not aid in covering imperfections in the surface. The brush farm surface is pretty good, no idea what it is called, i suggest contacting the netball federation for a contact.

Cant wait to come down to race at a permanent venue.

we hope to be away with full on racing by the end of the 1st qtr

how many netball/basketball courts is that? i cant tell cause of the wire.

loos good though lockable with high fences. no motor/push bikes to wreck the surface/facilities.

end of qtr 1, what march 2004???? or sept 2003

i think the raceable area will come to 30x35m (two tennis courts so its not huge but we'll be able to get a track in there) and the fence will be good!

i think the sufrace will make or brake the place the rest is easy!:)

sorry 1st qtr 2003/04 financial year - so sept '03

why don't you go with a surface a little rougher than moorebank.

something in the middle grade wise between moorebank and mingara. that would be perfect, and it should work for slicks also

SURFACE
 
I believe that Ryde has plenty of clay to donate :smile: :smile: :ha:
(no dig at the club intended)

Track
 
Could i just ask who is funding this permanent track is it the council or a private backer. The only reason i ask is we are tryin to get some cash out of our council and it's like getting blood out of a stone.

sounds similar in size to northside/eastern creek, which is a good size.

a surface like brushfarm would be great, the worst rubber/foams i have work good there so imagine how good the best stuff will be..

where bouts is this place anyway???

ant 06-24-2003 02:21 PM

the club is funding it its self:cry:
it is in fairymeadow just north of wollongong:D
dose anyone have the contact details of brushfarm
netball assosiation.
