smh.com.au

The Eastern Suburbs Football Club in Brisbane has proposed a new clubhouse after being unable to secure insurance due to flooding risks. The current facility has been damaged in past floods, making it uninsurable. The new design aims to raise the clubhouse above flood levels and includes features to allow floodwaters to pass underneath. The redevelopment is intended to create a more resilient and functional space for community and sports activities. Funding for the project will require collaboration among local, state, and federal governments. The new facility will meet FIFA standards and provide amenities for various sports competitions, addressing a shortage of training venues in Brisbane.
