Shire of Ravensthorpe Shire of Ravensthorpe Sports Facilities and Services Plan SHIRE OF RAVENSTHORPE SHIRE OF RAVENSTHORPE SPORTS FACILITIES AND SERVICES PLAN DRAFT REPORT V3 SEPTEMBER 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Shire of Ravensthorpe Sports Facilities and Services Plan has been developed to identify the facilities and services that are required for a healthy, diverse and sustainable sports environment with a solid volunteer base at its core. The scope of this project includes the following key components: . Facility Audit . Consultation with the Shire and local sporting groups . Identification of future requirements for sports . Benchmark fees for use of sporting facilities against other Local Government Authorities . Consider alternative facility and service provision and asset management options . Investigate the requirements of multi-purpose sporting facilities within the Shire . Recommend strategies for advancing volunteer engagement The recommendations within this report aim to ensure that community groups remain at the heart of sports provision into the long term future. This report is a live and working document which the Shire should review annually to ensure the Plan takes into account changes to the social, economic and political environment and data on sporting clubs and facilities remains up to date. A high proportion of sporting activities in the Shire are currently provided by clubs, and many facilities have been developed and are maintained by clubs (with contributions from the Shire across a number of facilities) with the exception of the ovals, swimming pool and the Ravensthorpe Entertainment Centre (REC). The Shire’s sporting clubs play a vital role in facilitating physical activity and community bonding, as evidenced with the winter sports competition where netball, football and hockey are all played at the same time and venue, shared between three towns and often involve participation of mothers, fathers and their children. Clubs are integral to the social fabric of the community and their long term sustainability is vital to maintaining an active and close knit community in the Shire. It is of key importance that the services that the Shire provides for sports clubs to support their development are targeted to the areas of greatest need to ensure the sports clubs remain strong and sustainable for future generations. There are two key characteristics of the Shire of Ravensthorpe that have affected the structure of this report and the way in which the recommendations have been presented. First, the Shire features a wide range of sports facilities and notably includes the recently constructed Ravensthorpe Entertainment Centre featuring two multi-use indoor courts, an indoor firing range, health and fitness facilities, a crèche, and a large elevated function room with a kitchen and bar. The Shire also has good quality playing fields in Hopetoun and Ravensthorpe, three functioning outdoor tennis court facilities, three golf clubs, two lawn bowls clubs and equestrian, ballistics and motorsports clubs. The current membership numbers of the clubs are generally quite small, thus the facilities on offer have high capacity for participation growth. Second, whilst the population of the Shire has grown in recent years and has potential for further growth in the future, the impacts of the fluctuating nature of local mining activity, the ageing population and the move towards fly in fly out workforces, 12 hour shifts and increasing size of farms mean that future growth in demand for sports facilities is likely to be limited within the Shire of Ravensthorpe. Therefore, the overall capacity within the Shire’s existing sports facilities is likely to meet any additional demand that may come from local population growth. 1 Shire of Ravensthorpe Sports Facilities and Services Plan These two key factors have resulted in the report focussing on opportunities to improve and optimise existing facility and services provision in order to improve sustainability, improve accessibility, encourage greater player, volunteer and spectator participation, fill gaps in provision where they exist and reduce instances of unnecessary duplication. Local participation rates are mixed. Some clubs are growing, some have relatively stable numbers and some have had declines in recent years. Many have noted the challenge of maintaining good membership numbers with farming families selling and moving away in the trend towards larger farms being formed. Facility needs expressed by the clubs are based around provision of basic requirements to conduct their activities including power generators, ablutions, storage and improved playing surfaces. Needs have also been identified for master planning of the Shires two major sports complexes in Hopetoun and Ravensthorpe to ensure future facility improvement decisions are made strategically and for sporting clubs with leased premises to be held to a higher level of accountability to ensure their premises are well maintained. Consultation and research undertaken within this report indicates a strong need to maintain and improve the levels of support provided to sports clubs to ensure they are able to continue to be the primary providers of sport and maintain strong community bonds within the Shire. This includes ensuring the Club Development Officer is able to spend more time in direct contact with local sporting clubs and for a stronger emphasis on club volunteer recruitment and support so that clubs are able to generate new, enthusiastic volunteers that are integral to successful, sustainable sporting organisations. 31 prioritised recommendations have been made within this report. The recommendations can be viewed with their supporting needs analysis in Sections 12 and 13 and within a recommendations summary table in Section 14. 2 Shire of Ravensthorpe Sports Facilities and Services Plan CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................................... 4 2 BACKGROUND ..................................................................................................................................... 5 3 DEMOGRAPHIC REVIEW ....................................................................................................................... 6 3.1 SHIRE OF RAVENSTHORPE DEMOGRAPHICS ...................................................................................................... 6 3.2 POPULATION BY TOWN ............................................................................................................................... 7 4 POPULATION PROJECTIONS ................................................................................................................. 8 5 RELEVANT INDUSTRY TRENDS AND ISSUES ......................................................................................... 10 6 FACILITY AUDIT KEY FINDINGS ........................................................................................................... 19 7 FEES FOR USE OF SPORTS FACILITIES .................................................................................................. 20 8 LOCAL PARTICIPATION TRENDS .......................................................................................................... 23 9 COMPARATIVE REVIEW ...................................................................................................................... 28 10 CONSULTATION KEY FINDINGS ........................................................................................................... 32 11 CONSIDERATIONS .............................................................................................................................. 38 11.1 DISABILITY ACCESS AND INCLUSION PLANNING ............................................................................................... 38 11.2 TRAILS OPPORTUNITIES ............................................................................................................................. 38 12 FACILITY NEEDS FOR THE SHIRE OF RAVENSTHORPE ........................................................................... 40 12.1 ACTIVE RESERVE SPACE ............................................................................................................................. 40 12.2 INDOOR COURTS ...................................................................................................................................... 40 12.3 OUTDOOR COURTS ................................................................................................................................... 41 12.4 HOPETOUN AND DISTRICTS RECREATION ASSOCIATION PAVILION ...................................................................... 42 12.5 BOWLS FACILITIES .................................................................................................................................... 43 12.6 GOLF COURSES ........................................................................................................................................ 43 12.7 RAVENSTHORPE COMMUNITY POOL ............................................................................................................ 43 12.8 EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES ............................................................................................................................. 44 12.9 RAVENSTHORPE SPORTS PRECINCT MASTER PLAN .......................................................................................... 45 12.10 HOPETOUN SPORTS PRECINCT MASTER PLAN ...........................................................................................

  • South Coast Region Regional Management Plan
    SOUTH COAST REGION REGIONAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 1992 - 2002 MANAGEMENT PLAN NO. 24 Department of Conservation and Land Management for the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Lands and Forest Commission Western Australia PREFACE Regional management plans are prepared by the Department of Conservation and Land Management on behalf of the Lands and Forest Commission and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority. These two bodies submit the plans for final approval and modification, if required, by the Minister for the Environment. Regional plans are to be prepared for each of the 10 regions administered by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM). This plan for the South Coast Region covers all lands and waters in the Region vested under the CALM Act, together with wildlife responsibilities included in the Wildlife Conservation Act. In addition to the Regional Plan, more detailed management plans will be prepared for certain critical management issues, (the most serious of which is the spread of dieback disease in the Region); particular high value or high conflict areas, (such as some national parks); or for certain exploited or endangered species, (such as kangaroos and the Noisy Scrub-bird). These plans will provide more detailed information and guidance for management staff. The time frame for this Regional Plan is ten years, although review and restatement of some policies may be necessary during this period. Implementation will take place progressively over this period and there will be continuing opportunity for public comment. This management plan was submitted by the Department of Conservation and Land Management and adopted by the Lands and Forest Commission on 12 June 1991 and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority on 19 July 1991 and approved by the Minister for the Environment on 23 December 1991.
