Box Hill City Oval set for revamp

A MAJOR $2 million revamp of the Box Hill City Oval can go ahead after a budget boost from the State Government.

Sports Minister James Merlino visited the oval last week to announce $600,000 would be put towards the project, which would provide a covered spectators area, improved coaches' boxes, a new canteen and an upgraded cricket pavilion.

Mr Merlino, a "mad-keen" Hawks fan, said the investment would make Box Hill an economically sound club that could provide a pathway for junior players to progress through the ranks.

"This is not just beneficial for the football club or the cricket club this is going to be beneficial for youngsters right across the region," he said.

Shaky ground

METRICON Bendigo Bombers chairman Ian Dyett is confident the VFL club is viable long-term despite the sudden departure of its third general manager in 12 months.

Jeff Brennan resigned as Bombers general manager on Monday night, just six months after taking up the role.

His decision to quit comes less than than 12 months after Matthew Allan resigned as general manager.

Peter Lodewijks took over from Allan as general manager, but he was then replaced by Brennan in November last year.

Lodewijks, who remains on the Bombers board, will return to the acting general manager’s role once Brennan leaves the club on Friday.
