Upgrades to the Margaret River Recreation Centre’s sports courts will commence early next month after last week’s decision to award the contract to local suppliers AMR Timber Flooring.

The 2019/20 Sports Floor Renewal project works will focus on the upgrade and renewal of the existing timber sports floor on Courts 1, 2 and 3 in the recreation centre.

Shire of Augusta Margaret River Recreation Operations Manager, Dylan Brown said the scope of works will include drum sanding the courts, replacing and fixing damaged boards, remarking court lines, and resealing the courts with a hard wearing floor sealer. 

“This complete renewal has never been undertaken on the courts since they were built in the late 1980’s early 1990’s and will greatly benefit the longevity of the courts when combined with the current annual maintenance schedule. The works will take place between 6 December 2019 and 24 December 2019,” he said.

“Unfortunately that means the courts will be closed during this time with no public access, however the courts will be reopened on Monday 30 December after the Christmas closure with a brand new playing surface that will greatly benefit the community and increase the standard of play”.

For more information on the works please contact the Shire’s Sport & Recreation Services on recreation@amrshire.wa.gov.au or 9780 5626.

The NEW Group Fitness Timetable launches on Monday, 18 November 2019.

The Gym Kids program is a movement-based learning experience for young children aged 1-5 years and their parents or caregivers.

Educational research tells us that children learn best through exploring and discovering their abilities through physical activity and just like reading and writing children need to learn how to move! Children need as many opportunities as possible to optimize brain development and increase physical potential before they go to school.

Gym Kids provides a safe environment for children to develop physical skills in a fun and playful way, at their own pace.
