Longfield Oval is comprised of two ovals; the first is a designated cricket field named Oval No. 1 and the second oval named Oval No. 2 containing a cricket pitch and two football fields. Currently each oval is illuminated by 4 poles with 5 metal halide (MH) luminaires installed on each pole. This lighting layout does allow some practices to be conducted on the fields at night. However, the current field lighting is not sufficient for match and semi-competitive play as per AS 2560.2:2021 Sports Lighting – Specific Applications. As part of the works, Council is proposing to upgrade the lighting of Oval No .1 to be compliant with Class V cricket field lighting as per AS 2560.2:2021. Upgrading Oval, No. 1 to this level has the added benefit of achieving the lighting necessary for semi-professional competition level football. Oval No. 2 is proposed to be upgraded Class VI to be compliant with football for amateur level competition and semi-professional practice as per AS 2560.2:2021.
