New play area and MUGA opens at Boorley Park
Local children can now enjoy a new play area and Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) that has been installed and are both now open at Boorley Park, Boorley Green.
The new play area provides a safe, fun and challenging experience is aimed at children up to 12 years of age. It centres around a multiactivity unit that includes a tunnel, snake see-saw, swings, circular trampoline, and a disability accessible roundabout.
The play area also includes safety surfacing around and under each bit of equipment. It has been funded from financial contributions from the developers of nearby new housing schemes and was installed by Vita Play Limited who are a local company based in Winchester.
The new MUGA is free to use from 7am to 7pm throughout the week. It has an all- weather surface and is most suited to football. The goals are set into the fencing so there is no time wasted assembling goalposts! This facility will also be available to the pupils at Boorley Park School.
Mayor of Eastleigh Cllr Cynthia Garton, “I am delighted to open these fantastic new play facilities in Boorley Park. These will provide local children in the area with the chance to enjoy a range of play equipment and an informal kick about area in a safe environment which also encourages them to keep active.”
