Kalara Reserve has undergone a brand-new $6 million upgrade and will be celebrating its official opening with a community event. 

Go along to this FREE community event on Thursday 14 August 2025 from 4pm – 6pm to explore the new facilities and celebrate the official opening of Kalara Reserve in Davoren Park. Chat with the Andrews Farm Soccer & Community Club and the Andrews Farm Cricket Club about joining their squads.  There will also be fun games, inflatables and come-and-try activities with the Adelaide Strikers and Adelaide United. 

Kalara Reserve Upgrade

Kalara Reserve now features a purpose-built, centrally-located clubroom and changeroom facility to support the Andrews Farm Soccer & Community Club and the Andrews Farm Cricket Club.

The district-level facility brings together previously separated clubrooms and changerooms into one central, modern space — making it easier for clubs to manage multiple games, support growing participation, and improve access across the reserve’s three soccer pitches. The new changerooms open up greater opportunities to for the clubs to support female programs and participation.

The upgraded facilities provide improved amenities for players, volunteers and spectators, while also creating greater flexibility for community use. Clubs can now host events, meetings and post-game functions on site, helping strengthen connections both on and off the field.

Key features of the renewed Kalara Reserve include:

  • Four changerooms and a dedicated umpires’ room
  • Synthetic cricket pitch and three new practice nets
  • Walk-in cool room, bar, upgraded kitchen and event facilities
  • Flexible meeting and function spaces
  • Alfresco seating area for spectators
  • New car park
  • Solar panels to reduce operational costs and environmental impact
  • The existing unsealed car park adjacent the original clubrooms will be sealed in the coming months now that the major upgrade works are complete.

With the new clubrooms now in place, Council planning is underway to repurpose the original facility into a dedicated community space, creating more opportunities for broader community access and use.

Kalara Reserve has served the community for decades, and this upgrade ensures it can continue to grow as the city grows. These new, modern facilities will create even more opportunities for people of all ages to participate in sport and community life.
