ACT Government sportsgrounds remain closed for training today


Released 01/06/2022

All ACT Government turf sportsgrounds will remain closed for training today, Wednesday 1 June 2022. Match play is unaffected and can proceed.

Closures include turf sportsgrounds but exclude the Melrose and Nicholls synthetic fields and the Woden athletics track.

The decision has been taken in order to minimise damage to turf surfaces after recent rainfall and low evaporation rates.

Sportsgrounds will be assessed again tomorrow, Thursday 2 June 2022 when a further update on the conditions of the grounds will be provided.
