About Dukes Oval
Tennis Courts at Dukes Oval
Dukes Oval has two synthetic grass tennis courts, run by Penrith City Council as the Emu Plains Tennis Courts. The courts have lights, which switch off 15 minutes after a booking ends. They are open every day of the year from 7.30am to 10pm. Access is by a personal identification number (PIN) that is sent by SMS or email after the first booking and works from 10 minutes before to 15 minutes after each session. The courts have no office or pro shop, so players bring their own equipment and drinks.
Cricket Oval and AFL Field at Dukes Oval
Dukes Oval has a turf cricket oval with a turf wicket, two cricket nets and an AFL field. Penrith City Council lists these sports grounds at the Emu Plains site on Park Street, alongside the tennis courts and the playground. The site has LED floodlighting, so the grounds can be used in the evening. The two cricket nets give players a place to practise at the same site as the oval, and the AFL field is listed as one of the site's sports grounds.
