Banyul-Warri fields hockey pitch locks in Olympic contractor
Published: 17 June 2025Victorian-based Polytan will lead the development of the much-anticipated Banyul-Warri Fields hockey pitch in Torquay.
Polytan are bringing their extensive experience in delivering hockey pitches at the highest level – including 8 Olympic Games venues, most recently the 2024 Paris Games – back to regional Victoria.
Funded through the Victorian Government’s Regional Sports Infrastructure Program, the project will deliver a new hockey pitch, lighting, scoreboard and spectator seating, along with a new car park.

The venue will be home to the Torquay Hockey Club, which is excited to welcome a local facility to play and train on.
The Regional Sports Infrastructure Program is part of the Victorian Government’s record $47 billion in just over ten years investment in projects and programs that matter to regional communities.
