The Mont Albert Reserve is one community area that is well loved. It is next to Box Hill Secondary College so I would avoid it around school starting and finishing times each day as it is suddenly inundated with students. There is a football oval that is complete with Cricket pitch. Football and Cricket clubs play here and there is clubhouse on the corner of the reserve, which they use. On the corner to the left of the clubhouse are a few basketball and netball courts. These are gravel but they have the lines marker out with paint. The oval itself is a popular dog walking spot in the mornings. Not everyone is honest about picking up their dogs poop so I would watch your step around the edges of the oval. The grass here is well maintained and is pretty much always looking good. Shade wise there are a lot of trees around the edges of the oval but none on it for obvious reasons.
