KEIRA CRICKET CLUB
Wollongong, Australia
Project Summary
A full outdoor cricket facility build for Keira Cricket Club at Keira Village Park in Wollongong. Five lanes sit on a 30m x 18m concrete slab, fully enclosed with galvanised chain mesh and five double gates. Every post is positioned outside the playing area, so the space stays open and flexible for multi-use training and cricket drills. Inside, four retractable soft netting dividers split or open the lanes as needed, and a soft netting roof across the whole area keeps every ball in.

- Keep the playing area open and flexible for multi-use training and drills.
- Allow lanes to be split or combined as sessions require.
- Prepare a difficult site, including tree removal and drainage, before construction.
