New basketball facilities
We've expanded Bayside's basketball facilities with an extension to the Sandringham Family Leisure Centre Basketball Stadium in Tulip Street.
Tulip Street Basketball Stadium expansion
The project included:
- a four-indoor court extension
- unisex change rooms and toilets
- storage, reception, canteen and first aid room
- air circulation system throughout the stadium
- improved access from the adjacent road network
- modified programs for outdoor half court
- additional car parking.
The new facilities opened in February 2024 will meet the current and future needs of basketball locally and enable the basketball association to expand its programs. The expansion is located on land reclaimed from Sandringham Golf Course.
The total cost of the expansion was $12 million, including a contribution from Sandringham Basketball Association.
Tulip Street Reserve habitat corridor
We worked closely with local environmental groups to ensure the safety and protection of trees, frogs, and other wildlife in the area, as part of the basketball stadium expansion.
The improved habitat for native wildlife enhances the surroundings of the Tulip Street Pond and enables the movement of native fauna from Tulip Street Reserve to Sandringham Golf Course.
