Rosemoor tartan track progressing well

George Municipality is spearheading the multi-million-rand upgrade of the Rosemoor Stadium, a key multi-code sports facility located in the heart of the community and will turn it into a world-class venue.

The new tartan athletic track will not only meet international standards but also ensure that the times and achievements of athletes are officially recognised. This upgrade is expected to enhance the overall sports infrastructure in the region, fostering greater participation and development in athletics.

The aim is to host various athletic events and serve as a central hub for local sports clubs and schools. The cost of the total upgrade is calculated to be R40,590,000.00. Construction on the site commenced in May 2024 and the planned completion of specifically the tartan track is January 2025.

Upon completion, the upgraded Rosemoor Stadium will be equipped with a state-of-the-art athletic track and facilities which will enable the stadium to host regional, national, and potentially international events, boosting the local economy and promoting sports tourism.
