Delivering a New Scoreboard and Solar at Dalyston Recreation Reserve

07 October 2026

A re-elected Carroll Labor Government will invest $120,000 to support a new scoreboard and solar conversion of the clubrooms at Dalyston Recreation Reserve, Dalyston.

That’s why Labor will back the Dalyston Football Netball Club and deliver up to $120,000 towards replacing the scoreboard and converting the clubrooms to solar.

Dalyston Recreation Reserve is home to the Dalyston Football Netball Club – and this upgrade will back them in.

Labor knows our local clubs are about more than just the game – they’re about community. And as our local clubs grow, they provide a place where members, supporters and volunteers come together.

That’s why Labor is backing upgrades that will help everyone of all ages and abilities get involved in community sport.

Only a re-elected Labor Government will ensure that community sports clubs have the facilities they need. While under a Liberal-One Nation coalition, community sport will suffer as part of their $40 billion in cuts.

“Labor knows local clubs are the lifeblood of regional communities – and this funding backs them in.”

“Labor will continue to support local clubs and back them in – a Liberal-One Nation coalition won’t.”

Quotes attributable to Labor Candidate for Bass Christopher Buckingham

“I want to acknowledge the advocacy efforts of the Dalyston Football and Netball Club committee and AFL Gippsland in helping to deliver this result.”

“Labor understands the role local sporting clubs play in their community. They bring people together, encourage healthy lifestyles and generate community pride.”
