$30 Million boost for Campbelltown Stadium Centre of Excellence.

[Tigerdazz2]

Looks like a new stand/facilities behind southern goal posts.
NO change to existing stands [east - west sides] or northern end.
Hopefully just the start of a rebuild? Wet the appetite?

It's the Northern end where the COE & incorporated stand will be,(as stated) they would have to demolish the leagues club to build it on the Southern end

 

[Tigerdazz2]

When does work start?

Unfortunately it is not stated, but it sounds like the funding has been approved.

 

[Tigerdazz2]

I wonder what capping the Northern end with the new COE and incorporated stand will do for crowd acoustics there?? It should give it some oomph!! 🤔😁

Putting this at the northern end is a smart move, with the leagues club at the south and the newish tennis club at the north. Two decent spots at either end of the ground for a pre or post game drink and feed.

Did you take the sun into consideration?

The sun will greatly enhance the acoustics taking them to a new level 😂🤣

Never had the sun in your eyes?

They say the northern end but the aerial image shows it at the southern end, existing stands left and right unchanged. But they did mention moving the scoreboard which is on the north hill.

No, it's shows the north end. You can see the leagues club at the opposite end.

I've been to Campbelltown Stadium numerous times. I've always sat at either the Western side or the Northern end to avoid getting too much of the sun in my eyes or getting my face burnt. It's mainly the people on the Eastern side that get affected by the sun in their faces.

At some point during the day you are going to get some glare unless you are well and truly covered by the old Western stand.

If we be losing - doesn't matter where the sun is. North, South, East. Just West/s.

I'll actually miss the Northern Hill when it's gone. It's always been great to spread out a picnic blanket (or even just sit) on the grass rather than get a sore arse sitting on the aluminium bench strip seating or the uncomfortable plastic seating on the concourse.

Would be great if the 2 sideline stands eventually wrap around the northern corners to link up with this development

A bit like WIN or Brookie to an extent.

Campbelltown needs to seat 25k fans and have the majority of our home games.

We need our own fortress.

We need to.start winning first.

We've been selling out CS whilst sitting at the bottom of the ladder recently.

I am old Balmain and totally agree! Maybe play 2 or 3 at Leichhardt and rest at a Redeveloped C-town
