The next generation of Sam Kerrs, Mary Fowlers and Claire Polkinghorne could hone their skills on a former landfill on Brisbane’s northside.
The next generation of Sam Kerrs, Mary Fowlers and Clare Polkinghornes could hone their skills on a former landfill on Brisbane’s northside, after Football Queensland was awarded the lease at a new $35 million community sports complex at Nudgee.
It was understood Football Queensland saw off stiff competition from Australian rules and cricket to secure the lease. “Enabling infrastructure projects like this is key to delivering opportunities for the thousands of boys and girls who are being turned away by local clubs every season due to a lack of infrastructure to service the current demands of our ever-growing game,” he said.
“The incredible efforts of our Matildas and the huge crowds during the Women’s World Cup show this facility is being delivered right in time to meet the booming participation in football by women and girls,” he said.“After attending the World Cup and watching my son play each weekend, I’m proud our council team is playing a role in helping Football Queensland grow the game in Brisbane with this great new sport and recreation facility on the northside.
