Tulloch Park has always been Mataura's principal sports ground. The 9.7 hectares are home to the
- Mataura Rugby Club
- Mataura Gun Club
There are two rugby fields, with training lights on the westernmost field, the rugby club's rooms and a grandstand which was relocated from the nearby all-weather hockey turf in 2014.
One of the newer additions to Tulloch Park is a pump track. A pump track is a continuous loop of round bumps and banked turns you ride by pumping, not pedalling.
The Mataura Pump Track is considered a Grade 2 - easy trail. This grade is based on the Kennett Brothers grading system, widely used by New Zealand riders.
Public toilets, picnic tables and a BBQ near the pump track make this an ideal family destination.
The park's attractions include a fitness track around the two rugby fields and a basketball half-court at the old tennis courts.
The Mataura Gun Club occupies the western part of the reserve with a shooting range and clubroom.
The Mataura Volunteer Fire Brigade also calls Tulloch Park home for its practice nights and competition days.
