LIGHTNING PARK recreation centre is set to get a $400,000 extension from the WA government.
The centre is home to The Noranda Hawks football club and Morley Eagles tee-ball club.
The grant will be used to extend the clubrooms in order to hold members’ functions, awards nights and other community events.
Morley Liberal MP Ian Britza says the Hawks—with around 350 members—has outgrown its small clubrooms.
“These upgrades will help cater for the rapidly growing club,” he says.
“This club has a long history of producing a series of AFL players. As everyone in the Morley electorate knows, I am a strong advocate for grassroots sporting clubs.”
The Noranda Hawks was established more than 30 years ago and caters for pre-primary to 17-year-olds.
Its amateur side runs colts to seniors competitions.
Bayswater city council will contribute $50,400.
