Sports and Athletic Field Construction in Australia

Trends in funding from all tiers of government; commercial sponsors; organised sports associations, such as the AFL, NRL and Hockey Australia; and philanthropic grants drive the Sports and Athletic Field Construction industry's performance. Long-term population growth has driven demand for additional sporting grounds, especially in outer suburban and regional areas, which has benefited industry contractors. However, sport participation by Australians aged 15 and over has declined, as people have engaged in alternative leisure and fitness activities. This trend has constrained investment in sports facilities.

Industry firms construct and install athletic and sports fields such as those used for football, baseball, soccer and lacrosse. Industry companies also construct artificial turf for sports fields; install grass fields, lighting and athletic track; construct or install embedded equipment such as goal posts, cages, protective netting and scoreboards; and construct and install seating. The industry does not include sports stadium construction.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
