Moree Plains Shire Council's project and development manager Lila Fisher said Ron Harborne Oval is a premier multi-code, four-oval sporting facility, home to junior and senior competitions for cricket, netball, hockey and soccer servicing the Moree Plains.
"The new LED lighting and electrical upgrade project to Australia Standards will provide for greater and safer night time use of the facilities," she said.
"This is a great outcome for the sporting clubs which use Ron Harborne Oval and Moree generally. Not many towns of our size could lay claim to such an impressive and professional facility."
