Upgrades to the sporting facilities at Frost Reserve in Kincumber have commenced with demolition of the old skatepark and site preparation.

The works are expected to take up to 8 months, weather dependent, and will see the construction of a new fit-for-purpose amenities building and the delivery of a new skatepark in 2026.

The Federal Labor Government provided $2.6 million to Central Coast Council following the 2022 Federal Election.

Quotes attributable to Federal Member for Roberson, Dr Gordon Reid MP:

“This upgrade has been a long time coming and I am pleased to see works commence on removing the old skatepark and preparing the site for the new amenities building.

“Sport has come a long way since the time the old sports buildings at Frost Reserve were built; female participation has increased, and we now have many different sporting groups accessing these buildings.

“The new amenities building will support several sporting groups and provide fit-for-purpose amenities.

“I thank local sporting organisations, the Kincumber Roos and the Kincumber Avoca Cricket Club for their advocacy and patience while planning works and the tender process were completed.

“I look forward to the project reaching key milestones over the coming months”, Dr Reid said.

Quotes attributable to Vice President of the Kincumber Roos, Scott Baker:

“The Kincumber Roos are so excited for this project to come to life over the coming months.

“There is so much to look forward to; my thanks go to Central Coast Council and the Australian Government, especially Dr Reid for securing the funding to get this work underway”, said Mr Baker.
