Lalor Reserve will now host some Northern Football League senior men’s and women’s finals.
The league said after a recent inspection of the Whittlesea Showgrounds as part of preparations for the upcoming finals series, it was determined that condition of the playing surface was not suitable to conduct matches on throughout the finals campaign.
The league will shift all finals matches originally scheduled at the Whittlesea Showgrounds to Lalor Reserve.
This includes the division 3 senior women’s first and second semi-finals on Sunday, August 11, as well as all division 3 senior men’s finals matches, including the grand final on Saturday, September 7.
It will be the first time the ground has hosted senior finals since 2013, when the two division 2 senior men’s semi-final’s took place at the venue.
