(1) The estimated revenue from sportsgrounds fees and charges in each year from 2012-13 to 2015-16 is expected to be between $1.2 million and $1.6 million per year.

It should be noted that there are challenges with providing exact sportsground revenue figures due to the following:

the amount of wet weather closures per season, which results in credits and/or refunds of hire fees, varies widely from season to season;

decisions made by sport in structuring competition and the associated booking of sportsgrounds creates a variance in revenue, either positive or negative; and

sports vary the way they operate from season to season in terms of how many teams they choose to assign to fields for training and this in turn impacts on revenue, either positive or negative.

It should also be noted that all revenue collected from the hire of sportsgrounds supports the maintenance of sportsgrounds.
