Final Update
We are pleased to share that works on the Wonthaggi Netball Pavilion are now complete.
The new pavilion delivers modern, accessible and fit‑for‑purpose facilities to support local netball participants, clubs and the broader community. Key features include change rooms a canteen, umpires' room, amenities and improved spaces for players, officials and spectators.
This project represents a significant investment in local sport and wellbeing by the Victorian Government’s Regional Community Sports Infrastructure, Bass Coast Shire Council & the Power Netball Club, thus helping to support participation across all ages and abilities while creating a safe, welcoming environment for the Wonthaggi community.
Council thanks all project partners, TS Constructions and their subcontractors and the community for their support throughout construction. We also appreciate everyone’s patience while works were underway.
We look forward to seeing the pavilion well used for many seasons to come.
Project Summary
About the Project:
Construction is complete on the new Netball Pavilion at Wonthaggi Recreation Reserve.
The works include:

The total cost of the project is $1,536,700
Victorian Government’s Regional Community Sports Infrastructure Fund $1,000,000
Bass Coast Shire Council $511,700
Club Contribution $25,000
- In line with the Wonthaggi Recreation Reserve Master Plan, the new play space will be relocated to the eastern end of the netball courts. Council recently applied for funding to redesign this whole area as a dedicated youth space and should this application be successful, community consultation will occur over the next 12-18 months to help shape the design.
- In the meantime, we encourage families to enjoy the many fantastic playgrounds nearby, including Guide Park (Bass Coast Shire’s Regional and award-winning playground) Apex Park & Rodney Court.
- The project will result in minor noise from plant and machinery used for construction, including earthmoving equipment, concreting, framing, and the use of trucks for delivery of goods and materials.
