Keep your eyes peeled for red flags at our local sports fields. Following a successful trial, flags will be displayed at sports fields to help dog owners know when their dogs are allowed on the oval.
This will keep athletes and dogs safe. The flags will also be used when Council staff and contractors are working on the ovals. For example, when mowing, marking or aerating the lawn.
In addition to Kingsford Smith Oval where this system has been in place since 2020, flags will be used at:
Blackman Park
Burns Bay Reserve
Bob Campbell Oval
Pottery Green
Tantallon Oval
To help make the transition a smooth one, our Rangers will be out and about at the sports fields to help educate residents about the new process.
