About this project
We're upgrading the cricket practice lanes at Beechworth's Baarmutha Park to an all-purpose sporting facility.
Why is this project being undertaken?
This project will see us replace the ageing and non-compliant three lane practice nets with a four lane fully enclosed facility that has been designed to Cricket Australia Community Cricket Facility Guidelines.
The upgrade will enable greater participation for all members of the community in a safer and more enjoyable environment.
How is it being funded?
This project is being funded through Sport and Recreation Victoria’s 2022 Community Cricket Program.

| Additional funding for roof | |

The contract for the construction of the sports nets was awarded by Council to iDwala Pty Ltd at the February 2025 Council meeting.
Works are scheduled to commence in Autumn.
