Project update April 2026

Complete and open to the public

We are excited to announce that work is complete and the renewed playspace at Forsyth Reserve is now open for use!

Background

The project will repurpose the long standing hard courts and create recreational opportunities by incorporating a brand new learn to ride bike track, a variety of pavement games and reverting some of the area to irrigated turf.

Two southern hard courts are being retained as community courts which were recently recoated in May this year (2024) incorporating some additional line marking for tennis, netball, pickleball and hot shots.

We would like to acknowledge that these courts were previously home to the former Hackham Tennis Club who occupied the site since approximately 1980. The club folded in 2022 after almost 50 years of successful history of competition and social tennis.
