Thirroul Junior Football Club is pleased to announce that the club has secured a grant of $37,015 from Wollongong City Council for drainage works at Gibson Park.

This is much welcome news as it will enable Thirroul JFC to install a slit drainage system on both of the club's full size pitches after previously securing a $35,000 grant from the NSW Government's Community Building Partnership program through Member of Keira, Ryan Park.

It is hoped that this work can be completed during the off-season and will minimise the number of times Thirroul's junior and senior teams are unable to play or train at Gibson Park in coming seasons.

Thirroul JFC would like to thank Wollongong City Council for this significant funding decision, which will benefit the club's 500 registered players and other users of Gibson Park.
