Accommodation / Restaurants

All sports in Invercargill receive considerable funding support from the Invercargill Licensing Trust and ILT Foundation. Waihopai Football Club benefits significantly from these grants and we are expecting to receive funding to assist in the running of this Jubilee, so ask that in return our members support the ILT. Here are some links for restaurants and accommodation.

Surrey Park – our number 1 field is in the centre of the Athletics Running track, with our clubrooms under the athletics grandstand.
