Sports Ground closure information

p: 02 9294 8586

City of Parramatta provides up-to-date sports ground closure information in the local governmental area. Users are encouraged to monitor the information daily, as grounds can remain closed for several days after a period of rain.

The use of a sporting field following significant rainfall can damage the playing surface and raise risk management issues with emphasis on player safety. To ensure that our sporting fields are maintained at a safe standard, it is necessary for City of Parramatta to close grounds until they are suitable for use again. 

All users and hiring users must observe sporting field closures, as liability for the cost of rectifying any wet weather damage will be incurred. 

Check the status of a sports ground during wet weather with the Wet Weather Line or the table below. The line is updated at 3:00pm on weekdays and before 7:00am on Saturdays. 

When a ground is closed it is closed for that night and the following day, until the Wet Weather Line is updated again in the afternoon. Sports ground floodlighting is not operational when fields are closed.
