Moving to a new neighbourhood isn’t just about finding your forever home, it’s about the community you’ll be part of. At Amory, that community is already established and thriving, with a strong local and welcoming sporting scene at the centre of Ripley. What’s exactly on your doorstep? Let’s jump straight in.
Ripley Valley Football Club
Ripley Valley Football Club (RVFC) is a wonderful example of a community growing together. Started in 2018, this grassroots club has expanded into more than 500 members across 30+ teams, spanning junior, senior, women’s and master’s football.
Based in Ironbark Park in South Ripley, they received a $2.18 million clubhouse and amenities upgrade in 2024, including dedicated women’s and girls’ changerooms. More players, more teams, and more ways for the whole family to get involved and cheer from a proper home ground.
A New Home for Cricket and AFL
Something new is coming soon to South Ripley! Ipswich City Council is building a brand-new sports park in Goolpahjo Harry Thompson Senior Park, purpose-built for cricket and AFL and ready for the 2026-27 season. The Council is already expressing interest from clubs keen to call it home. It’s a great one to watch, and a great chance to get involved early if cricket or AFL is your game.
Ipswich Basketball Association
Prefer basketball to soccer? The Ipswich Basketball Association runs junior basketball training at Ripley Valley State Secondary College. With teams for both boys and girls ranging from 5-18 years, there’s never been a better time for your little ones to try a new sport close to home.
Community Comes First at Amory
At Amory, we’re conveniently placed in the heart of Ipswich, which is home to more than 220 sports fields and courts citywide, with new facilities on the way as the region continues to grow. There’s always another club, court or team ready to welcome you.
Choosing a new home is much more than land size and floor plans. It’s finding a place where you and your family can truly belong. At Amory, that feeling is already here. Ready to be part of it? Register your interest to be the first to hear about our next release.
