Melbourne’s newest indoor sports centre in the heart of the inner north enters an exciting new phase with the appointment of Clublinks as the venue operator, with the facility to formally open in early 2026.

These upgrades are designed to strengthen Ballarat’s reputation as a regional hub for major events while helping more residents and community clubs to enjoy the sports they love, close to home.
