Nice modern facilities but unfortunately let down by some of the locals who take no pride in keeping it good condition. For example the men's toilet is not flushed after use and full of grafitti.

Amazing brand new playground. So many thing to do for kids of all ages. Semi fenced. Decent car park. See parksandadventuresofsydney on Instagram for more. 😊

No proper amenities for female soccer players. No seating to watch the games. So bring your own chairs. Make toilets are discusting. No real shaded areas for spectators. Even thought they have a fully synthetic field. Someone forgot to incorporate even half decent seating and shaded spaces.
