Civic Reserve Sports Pavilion’s spacious, sporty and smart

Published on 07 February 2025

Mount Martha Soccer Club, Mornington Little Athletics and Mornington Peninsula Athletics Club have a brand-new home: Civic Reserve Sports Pavilion.

The clubs moved into the new building last month, and the move was nothing short of special – this is the first time these three clubs have had a pavilion to call home.

The new pavilion is not only stylish, but also built with the environment and reducing maintenance costs in mind. Features include:

Passive design including insulation, glazing and shading improves energy efficiency
Large 50kW solar PV system
Efficient hot water heat pump
Rainwater tank to capture and reuse water
Efficient air conditioning, lighting and fixtures
Raingardens to improve stormwater quality
Low carbon concrete used in civil and structural design.

Mornington Peninsula Shire was successful in receiving $4 million State Government funding through the Community Sports Infrastructure Stimulus Program. In total, the Pavilion cost $10.5 million. Later this month, Tom McIntosh MP and Mayor Councillor Anthony Marsh will invite the clubs and other stakeholder to the official opening event.
