flag Maitland Mayor seeks $40M to expand sportsground to 10,000–15,000 seats for regional sports demand.

flag Maitland Mayor Philip Penfold is pushing for a $40 million upgrade to expand Maitland Sportsground into a 10,000 to 15,000-seat multi-sport stadium, citing regional demand for a mid-sized venue between Swansea and Port Stephens. flag The site, already upgraded with a modern grandstand and facilities, could expand on its eastern side to add corporate boxes and seating, with the mayor seeking government funding. flag The proposal responds to a call from Newcastle Rugby League for better-equipped, medium-capacity venues for rugby league, soccer, and women’s teams, as nearby Newcastle No.2 Sportsground lacks such amenities despite similar upgrades.
