Unveiled: Montmorency College Sports Stadium Design!

The design of the new Montmorency College Sports Stadium has been released.  The stadium will feature 3 basketballs courts including a show court, retractable seating and underground car parking.

This $20m investment by the Andrews State Government will not only enhance the sports opportunities at Montmorency Secondary College with this state-of-the-art stadium, but also alleviate the huge pressure placed on current stadiums for the more than 10,000 basketballers in our local community.

In 2019, Sean Godsell Architects was appointed to design the new Montmorency College Sports Stadium. 

The Architects have released high-quality renders of the world class stadium. These exciting designs showcase the modern pavilion.

Students at Montmorency Secondary College and the wider community are now one step closer to accessing outstanding sporting facilities. This is in addition to the school’s recent $14 million rebuild and refurbishment, thanks to the Andrews Labor Government.

‘The designs look fantastic and I know local basketballers will be thrilled with how this stadium will look.  We have some of the highest basketball participation numbers in the state, including the Eltham Wildcats being the largest domestic club in Victoria, if not Australia.  This is great news for Montmorency Secondary College, basketball and sports lovers.

Quotes attributable to Greg Jeffers, CEO of Eltham Wildcats

‘This facility adds substantially to local community sport, allowing us to cater for basketball in safe and high-quality facilities. It allows us to continue to provide pathways and opportunities to 6,300 players, coaches, referees, administrators and technical officials at all levels’
