Nowra Receives Funding For Jockeys' Room Upgrade

Shoalhaven City Turf Club is delighted to have received $330,000 in funding from the NSW State Govt. for an upgrade to their jockey facilities.

The project includes expansion and renovation of the current jockeys change rooms, with a particular emphasis on improving and upgrading the female jockey room and facilities.

The recent announcement was made by the Hon. Kevin Anderson MP (Minister for Better Regulation and Innovation) and is part of a $67 million investment in racing infrastructure to occur over the next three years across multiple race clubs in NSW.

Shoalhaven City Turf Club's CEO, Paul Weekes was delighted with the news and welcomed the funding: “This project has been in the pipeline for some time and the funding made available by the NSW State Govt. will now allow us to complete a much-needed upgrade to the female jockeys' room.

"The involvement of female jockeys in the racing industry in NSW continues to grow and this long-overdue upgrade will provide the necessary facilities to accommodate their ever-increasing participation.

"The Club would also like to take the opportunity to thank both Kevin Anderson and our local MP, Shelley Hancock for making this possible."

Shoalhaven City Turf Club President, Mick Martin made special mention of the assistance received by Racing NSW leading to this great result.

“Racing NSW has been instrumental in assisting with this funding and we are very appreciative to both Peter V’landys and Graeme Hinton for their hard work to attract this funding for not only us but for other race clubs in NSW.”
