The $4 million Baldivis South Sports Pavillion has been officially launched after almost one year of works.
City of Rockingham Mayor Barry Sammels said Baldivis residents needed facilities to catch up with rapid growth.
"As one of our fastest growing regions, indeed the entire country’s fastest growing regions, it gives me a very real sense of satisfaction to launch each project and facility for Baldivis that the City completes.
“This facility forms a component of a bigger picture suite of other projects the area needs and can look forward to in the near future, including a dog park, the Baldivis South Community Centre, the District Sporting Complex Stage 1, Outdoor Courts, a Youth Space and a Recreation Reserve.
“These projects fill out the five year Council plan for Baldivis.
"The future focus is on Baldivis and infrastructure and it is a very exciting time for residents who have been awaiting the commencement of construction on various facilities.
“Community infrastructure such as this sports pavilion helps to support our community’s interactions, health and leisure time and is important for fostering a strong, healthy community."
The new sports pavilion which includes clubrooms with change rooms, a meeting room, kitchen and toilet facilities, will primarily provide a base for the Baldivis Soccer and Little Athletics Clubs’ activities.
Other works included two senior soccer pitches, a 400m athletics track, synthetic long jump run up and pits, a synthetic cricket wicket, car parking and floodlighting.
