IMG_4872WARRAGUL NETBALL COURTS : GECKOPAVE® COURTS

Testimonial: Netball Association President, Tracey Anderson had this to say; “After Baw Baw Shire Council and Netball Victoria’s inspection of the courts it was deemed that the surface was unsafe for playing.  With the competition only weeks from beginning it was questionable whether our courts would be ready in time. Once the resurfacing started I was amazed with the progress Gecko was making. Gecko understood the timeframe and worked around the difficult weather conditions to make it happen. ”  View Case Study: Warragul Netball Complex – GeckoPave

CrossFit Gym Mat 13CROSSFIT GYMNASIUM:  GYM FLOORING

Testimonial: Brett Forde – CrossFit Townsville Head Coach had this to say; “We had seen RPS’ Rubber Flooring used at a CrossFit gym in Sydney for almost 5 years now and it’s the only matting to survive that time. The rubber matting gets a real hammering… weights are dragged across it and we use it as a platform to drop 100 – 150kg weights onto it and we’re really happy with the product.”  View Case Study: Crossfit Gym – Townsville – Gym Matting

dscf0929JOHN LANDY OVAL:  TRACK AND FIELD SURFACING

Testimonial: Colin Hatton Coordinator of Capital Projects for the City of Greater Geelong Council said; ”Gecko resolved our areas of concern by providing a surface solution that is guaranteed and is able to stand up to the enormous amount of pedestrian traffic and the impact of the hammers and discus’. Gecko’s approach to the project was thoughtful and included a heavy base material beneath the quality synthetic grass designed to last the distance. The surface looks natural and is uniform to the surrounding areas”.  View Case Study: John Landy Field Geelong

Flooring for Indoor Training CentresGIPPSLAND POWER FOOTBALL CLUB – INDOOR TRAINING CENTRE

Testimonial: Peter Francis – Region Manager of Gippsland Power Football Club had this to say; “The flooring in our new training facility is fantastic. All the boys love training on it and it is easy to keep clean.  We had the Essendon and Richmond AFL Football Clubs play a pre-season game here and they thought the rooms and areas were great and loved them too.  I’d have no hesitation in recommending Gecko’s Speckled Coloured flooring in training areas as we’ve used it”.  View Case Study: Gippsland Power Training Room

Testimonial: Steve Hocking former player & Assistant General Manager of Football said; ”Our training program would have been severely hampered if we had not found Gecko’s solution. The pitch cover has been extremely successful and the players run over it  and change direction with confidence. For our players to prepare and then play at their best you need to be sure that the surface is good, and Gecko has provided us with an excellent product which has enabled us to run our business as usual”.  View Case Study: Geelong Cats Footy Club

Cropped 1GLEN EIRA CITY COUNCIL: CRICKET PITCH COVER SYSTEM ®

Testimonial: Peter Todd Ground Maintenance Coordinator for the Glen Eira City Council had this to say; ”Finally I’ve found a synthetic Pitch Cover system that can be both laid and picked up in one piece.  Gecko’s system is great, it’s easy to lay and to pick up.   Last year we had more than 140 different teams play on the pitch covers and we didn’t get one complaint. In less than 7 years we will have paid back this new system in comparison to our traditional method of covering pitches with soil which is messy and inferior to a player’s safety. With 10 covers already being used in the Council I’m committed to the system and eventually all non-natural.”  View Case Study: Glen Eira Council

 

GLENORCHY CITY COUNCIL: RUN ON/OFF AREAS AND COACHES BOXES

Testimonial: Brendan Rose Team Leader of Turf and Sports Grounds for the Glenorchy City Council said; ”We had been looking to do something like this for the last couple of years, but didn’t really know where to go. Gecko turned up with a solution that has fixed the problem areas . . . mainly the interchange boxes which are always wet, have high traffic and are hard to repair because they’re always in the shade. Gecko’s involvement and communication has been great and when we need anything its no problem With this success we have just employed them to do the same areas on our soccer field”.  View Case Study: KG5 Oval Glenorchy City Council

Testimonial: Justin Hanrahan Coordinator of Open Space Capital Works had this to say; ”We needed to do something quickly as the football season was fast approaching & our Premier Football ground was not in a condition to support elite level competition. We asked around and one of our neighbouring councils put us onto Gecko who were prompt in putting forward a solution. I was extremely comfortable with Gecko as they understood the urgency and came with fantastic credentials to work on such a high profile football ground. Since Gecko’s completion of the works we’ve had nothing but positive feedback from the football clubs.”  View Case Study: Victoria Park Footy Oval

 

Mirabooka Reserve Cricket Nets

WHITEHORSE CITY COUNCIL – MIRABOOKA RESERVE:CRICKET PRACTICE NETS AND PITCH SYSTEM

The site of the Mirabooka Reserve Cricket Practice Nets was originally a green field area adjacent to Orchard Grove Primary School and formed part of a network of suburban parklands and community sporting ovals known as Mirabooka Reserve. The Council was approached by the local community cricket clubs to provide a cricket practice faclity that could be used by the community all year round. Gecko had previously undertaken works for the Council and so was asked to tender for this project.  View Case Study: Mirabooka Reserve
