    Microclimate profile

    Modern enclosed bowl on the Swan River; the tall continuous stands shield much of the surface, so ground-level wind is usually well below the forecast. Hot, dry summer evenings with a reliable late "Fremantle Doctor" sea breeze from the south-west.

    Wind direction is read against the ground axis: a breeze running along the axis helps or hurts kicking end to end, while a crosswind mostly pushes the ball sideways.
