Bat and Ball Field Amenities Upgrade

Greater Sydney Parklands is upgrading the amenities at Bat and Ball Field to meet community needs and to support the growing participation of girls and women in sport.

Located on the south‑eastern corner of South Dowling Street and Cleveland Street within Moore Park, Bat and Ball Field plays an important role in supporting community and professional sport.

The need to enhance the facilities was identified in the Moore Park Master Plan 2040. The upgraded facility will deliver a contemporary, inclusive, and fit‑for‑purpose changing and toilet facility for players and users, officials and spectators.

Temporary change rooms and storage

Greater Sydney Parklands has installed two temporary change rooms while planning continues for a permanent facility. These are located close to the existing toilet block, adjacent to temporary storage containers. The change rooms are internally lit and available during field bookings.

Keeping you informed

We are currently reviewing feedback on the plans for the proposed upgraded facility and will keep the community informed of next steps as the project progresses.
