Great spot for kids, there is a playground with swings and slides, there is a football court and dog park. There is public restrooms. The place is perfect for walks amd bringing kids

Nice huge football park, lost for natural and synthetic grounds. Its a shame that a park this big is not complemented with parking facilities.. you will be driving round and round just to find a street parking spot, especially on soccer game days..

Great area to play soccer and let kids play. Good club, great atmosphere. Don’t go to the toilets though they are a bit dirty sometimes. Would be great for seating for the spectators, plus there is a playground on the side for little kids. Overall great park.

September 2021 Was looking forward to talking a walk in this park, but when I came there, it was all fenced off unfortunately (one of the photos explains the reason why). Also apparently, there is a new astro turf being built on what previously was a naturally grassed park. But I was able to walk just around the fenced off area, almost like a bush style trail near the houses. The suburb of Banksia is beautiful and peaceful with nice houses.

Great play area in the park with creative options for little kids. It's also next to a large grassy park for ball playing. Toilets not always open. No fence. No bike or scooter area. Very relaxing place
