THE future of the Frankston Baseball Club looks brighter after the announcement of new lighting at its home ground.

New lighting up to 250 lux will be installed at Robinsons Reserve. Frankston ratepayers will contribute $180,000 towards the project, while the federal government via Sports Australia has chipped in $190,000.

Work is expected to be complete by November.

The Frankston Baseball Club has been playing since 1945. The club currently boasts nine teams, four senior and five junior. The club’s president Mark O’Brien said “I extend sincere thanks to all who have made this possible.”

“It is important that you realise that through your efforts you have enhanced opportunities for people, particularly young people, to participate in sporting activities and have ensured that we can continue to thrive, grow and maximise the potential of Robinsons Reserve to the Frankston Baseball Club, Frankston Softball Association and the broader community,” he said. “Let there be light!”
