Burrendah Reserve is taking shape to support the growing needs of the community. The Southern Changerooms on South Oval, our Home Ground, are being constructed for the 1985 season and it is intended these facilities are to be used for junior football, hockey, cricket and basketball. Up to this time players at South Oval have had to endure primitive conditions on Game Days. The North Oval at Burrendah Reserve is also being prepared for the 1985 season although in December 1984 there are concerns the changerooms at North Oval might not be ready. Articles can be read on the link below the attached photos.
