Our Facilities

Our Facilities

The Club has been actively involved with many changes over the last 34 years. Funding from the City of Melbourne has ensured that players now compete on a new synthetic pitch. This is one of Australia's first synthetic sports fields that complies with international standards for soccer. The Bill Vanina Pavilion is home to the Club and its purpose-built changerooms and storage facilities further supports our players. The pavilion also provides a function room that caters for our members, supporters and residents of the Kensington community.
