Community Workshop - 8 August 2012

The City of Ryde is considering providing synthetic surfaces on some sportsgrounds and we would like to hear the community’s views

Representatives of local sporting clubs and associations were invited to a workshop to discuss this issue and to hear from those who have built, managed and played on synthetic fields.

Speakers included representatives from Blacktown and Willoughby Councils, Northbridge Soccer Association, the AFL and Ryde Hockey Club.
