Essex Heights Reserve Cricket / Futsal is a versatile community sporting facility designed and constructed by Grassports in collaboration with the City of Monash. Completed in April 2024, the 872m² development transformed the space into a high-performance multi-use training environment catering to both cricket and futsal.
Grassports undertook part of the facility design alongside the complete construction of a fully enclosed six-lane cricket net complex, featuring draw curtains separating each lane for flexible training configurations. Integrated futsal goals further enhance the functionality of the space, allowing the facility to seamlessly support multiple sports and year-round community use. The result is a durable and modern sporting precinct that maximises participation, skill development, and versatility within a compact footprint.
