Princes Highway Reserve
Steve DIMOPOULOS (Oakleigh – Minister for Environment, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events, Minister for Outdoor Recreation) (09:42): I was very pleased last week to officially open the new Princes Highway Reserve cricket training facility in Oakleigh East, made possible through a $100,000 grant from the Victorian government to Monash council and Monash’s own funds. It is a fantastic facility that will benefit the hundreds of cricketers from the Oakleigh District Football Netball Cricket Club, Clayton District Cricket Club, Mount Waverley Cricket Club and Glen Waverley Cricket Club. This adds to funding we have provided for the outdoor fitness hub precinct at the same facility. Since 2014 we have backed our local sports clubs, investing $43 million in sport and recreation infrastructure in the Monash council area alone.
