Frenchville Sports Club has celebrated the opening of Stage One of the club’s ongoing major renovations.
The first phase saw the club introduce a sleek new gaming room with ample privacy, a reception fitted with natural timber throughout, and newly designed bottle shop.
Frenchville Sports Club chairman Graeme Brady said the completion of stage one sets the tone for the next stages of the club’s extensive renovations.
“Our sensational new gaming room now features 145 state-of-the-art gaming machines, providing members with an exciting and modern gaming experience. It also includes Australia’s first ladies only retreat,” he said.
“We are thrilled to be providing a space that enhances all aspects of our club and provides the best possible experience for our members and guests.”
But Stage One is just the beginning of a series of updates that will be taking shape at the club. Future phases will include the expansion of the club’s cafe, a revitalised bistro, and the introduction of the Dusk Lounge and Duo Cocktail and Sports Bar.
Renovation work will then wrap up with the upgrade of Ryan Park and its facilities including its grandstand, accessibility viewing platform, and bathrooms.
The club appointed Ashley Cooper Constructions as the head contractor and BSPN Architecture as the design and project manager partner.
Frenchville Sports Club, which serves over 27,000 members annually, remains fully operational during the ongoing renovations.
Construction is expected to be completed by mid-next year.
