About the project
We upgraded the indoor sports centre at Collingwood College.
We refurbished the single existing full-size basketball court by expanding the three-quarter court to full-size, and built a new court. This has created three competition-grade basketball courts, two of which can also be used for netball.
This was a much-needed facility that can now be used by students, and shared with the wider City of Yarra community and the Collingwood Basketball Association.
Funding
In 2017, the Victorian Government allocated $8.3 million for the project.
