This upgrade included converting their en-tous-cas courts to mod-grass, extending the courts surface to meet Australian standards, new LED lighting, fencing and landscaping. The $1.18M project was largely funded by the Victorian State Government with a significant contribution from the City of Greater Dandenong council and the Club itself. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The State Government funding was obtained through the Sports &amp; Recreation infrastructure grants. All sporting clubs in the City of Greater Dandenong were invited by the council to submit detailed proposals for up-grades of their facilities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Three worthy proposals were then submitted to the State Government for consideration and a limited number of projects from all over the state were subsequently approved to receive funding.
