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.

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

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

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???
