Get information on parks, sportsgrounds and courts in the Blue Mountains.
Information about ground closures can be found in the table below.
Next review: When major weather changes occur, or conditions change.
Council is required to close its sports grounds and ovals from time to time in response to adverse weather conditions and other circumstances. The decision to close and reopen sports grounds and ovals is made on a needs basis. When grounds are CLOSED it is to prevent damage to the sporting fields, usually during wet weather.
If grounds are declared CLOSED on the day of scheduled training, then training is not permitted. If grounds are declared OPEN, training is permitted at the discretion of the club.
