What the council's documents say

  • Public liability: Clubs "maintain appropriate insurances including $20 million public liability insurance for the term of the agreement".
  • Building: "have a damage policy covering full replacement value of all buildings and fixtures (for leases only)."
  • Contents: Not stated in the documents read.
  • Council named on the club's policy (an "interested party"): Not stated in the documents read.
  • Certificate of currency: Each year clubs "complete the annual Community Facilities Census online form and provide copies of certificates of currency, licences, annual financial report and constitution".

Where a point above is marked not stated, the council documents listed below were checked on 29 October 2026 and say nothing on it. The club's own lease may.
