  • Opportunity to improve cover and amenities for the program pool.
  • Mid-range catchment.
  • Visitor-draw is diverse, with the area attracting visitors from Redlynch and the northern beaches.
  • Generating the highest catchment multiple performance of all aquatic centres in the network, with the exception of Babinda (noting Babinda only generates 3,922 annual visits).
  • After Tobruk, Smithfield has the lowest cost per visit within the network.
