Description
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Kingborough Lions United Football Club has over 700 members from juniors to elite teams – around 38% of our membership is female. We are an active football (soccer) club for 12 months of the year. We currently provide programs accessed by the broader community – Holiday Clinics, Gala Days, Skills (Coaching) Programs, Athlete Development (in partnership with the neighbouring High School).
Each year the club fields increasing numbers of enquiries for more programs – the population in Kingborough is increasing rapidly. We are not able to meet this new demand nor the current community demand due to inadequate facilities.
We have recently commenced an infrastructure project that includes 8 gender neutral changerooms with modern bathroom and shower facilities, new clubrooms & kiosk, and a function centre. Additionally, we have redeveloped our pitch to improve drainage and lighting with an eye to creating a unique boutique football destination. The 8 changerooms with Kit Room, Treatment Room and 3 Referees’ Rooms are now operational and the pitch will be ready to use on 1 July 2023.
With our new building and pitch redevelopment we are also getting a new grandstand which is expected to be completed by mid-2024. The grandstand will provide just under 1000 seats – some of which will be undercover (currently we have no undercover seating) and access to the facility and seating will be all-abilities friendly.
This is an opportunity to add a name of your choice to the development. For a donation of $300 Kingborough Lions United FC will put a plaque with your name on it, on a grandstand seat.
Your named plaque will be highly visible, so your donation will be remembered for many years to come. As recognition for your contribution, you will also receive an invitation to the Grand Opening of the venue, when we unveil your plaque. Additionally, you will be on the list of Legacy Donors on klufc.com.au and receive perpetual recognition.
Things to note;
Your donation does not entitle you to free entry to matches and this is not a reserved seat nor does it provide ownership of the seat.
This is a one-off payment and will not require renewal.
We will keep you updated on the progress of the development and the grandstand.
