Premium courts and fields to host high-performance and community sports from netball, hockey, basketball, taekwondo, gymnastics and more. State Sport Centres – Parkville is one of Australia’s premier sporting venues offering sporting facilities and programs from grass roots to high-performance, international and Olympic level athletes. More than 500,000 people a year play or watch netball, hockey and other events at the centre, with over 80 per cent of its users being female.
