đ Richmond, Canterbury

As an old boy from Shirley Boys High School that fundraised for this gym in the 1980's, isn't it great to see it being used again after being so badly damaged after the earthquakes!. A great variety of sporting and community groups are now using it almost at capacity in after-school hours and it has become a hugely valuable community asset that is fantastic to see.
đ Family Action Verdict
A community sports hub that works well for families with school-age children interested in basketball, football, or indoor sports. Easy to book and welcoming to newcomers of all ages.
