Hire a Sportsfield for the summer or winter seasons

Fairfield City Council provides 36 sportsfields across the City, a significant asset and annual investment in sports and recreation for the community. Local schools rely upon the City’s sportsfields for local students.

Two athletics fields at Makepeace Park in Fairfield and Rosford Park in Smithfield provide the City’s children and young people an opportunity to keep fit, develop skills and grow in their talents.

Hiring a sportsfield, whether use is disrupted by rain or not, is heavily subsidised to ensure:

• Annual surface renovation and maintenance work: aeration, topdressing, weed spraying, fertilising and turfing (September to March)
• Cleaning and maintenance of amenity buildings, car parks. watering systems and lighting
• Scheduled grass cutting and line marking to ensure the best playing conditions.

Two sportsfields are located on sites with a dual recreation/stormwater detention basin: Stockdale Park, Abbotsbury and Bosnjak Park, Edensor Park.The sportsfields in these parks are subject to being affected by flooding in periods of high rainfall and more disruption.  Special consideration is given to hire fees with this dual use as sportsfields.
