Grant Activity:
Female Jockey Facilities Improvements and Refurbishment
Purpose:
The project will upgrade and refurbish current female change rooms and install a kitchenette and ambulance bay in the Townsville Turf Club.
Consistent with the national trend, Townsville Turf Club has a growing number of local and visiting female jockeys who will benefit from the upgrade of the facilities. A comfortable and well-quipped change room is fitting of the dedication and commitment the jockeys show to the sport, and this enables them to be in the right space to prepare both physically and mentally for their race ride.
It is also a requirement that the Jockeys are in the Jockey room at least 2 hours prior to their race. Racing is one of the few sports where men and women can compete on equal terms as they adhere to the same guidelines and weight restrictions, so delivering adequate facilities for them had been identified as a priority by the Committee.
