The Aspley Hornets Football Club will receive $1.8 million under the Games On! program to upgrade its clubhouse facilities. The funding forms part of a broader commitment to grassroots sport across Queensland, with all Games On! commitments fully funded in the Budget.
Games On! for the Hornets
The $1.8 million investment will support clubhouse improvements at the Aspley Hornets Football Club. Member for Everton Tim Mander confirmed all Games On! commitments for the electorate are fully funded in the Budget, including support for the Aspley Hornets.
The Games On! program represents a $250 million investment in community sporting facilities across Queensland.
Supporting young people in Aspley
In addition to the sporting infrastructure investment, Aspley State High School will receive $27,000 to fund mentoring programs for students. The funding comes under the Supporting Our Local Communities initiative.
The $27,000 will support mentoring activities for students at the school.
Major intersection upgrade on the way
The 2025–26 Budget also delivers an upgrade for the Gympie Road and Beams Road intersection in Carseldine.
The intersection currently carries more than 80,000 vehicles daily. The upgrade aims to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion.
Part of a bigger picture
These Aspley-focused investments form part of broader Budget commitments across Brisbane’s northern suburbs. The Budget includes $52 million for the Boondall police facility upgrade, $7 million for Ferny Grove police station improvements, and various school and community facility upgrades across the region.
The Hospital Rescue Plan will also benefit northern suburbs residents, with major expansions planned at Prince Charles Hospital including at least 93 new beds, a new emergency department, paediatrics and operating theatre.

For local residents, the Budget delivers tangible improvements to everyday life. The Hornets clubhouse upgrade will enhance local sporting facilities. The mentoring program investment supports young people at a crucial stage of their development. And the intersection upgrade addresses congestion affecting thousands of daily commuters.
As implementation plans are developed and construction timelines confirmed, Aspley residents can expect to see these Budget commitments take shape over the coming months and years, contributing to a stronger, more connected community.
