This multifaceted sports facility is the largest development to date by PCYC NSW, and one of a string of new clubs across the state designed by AJC.

Designed and delivered on time and on budget, the 5,300 square-metre Club is a pivotal project for this important registered charity, whose remit is to empower youth to reach their potential through Police programs and community engagement.

Sports facilities include four full-size multi-use sports courts in a naturally lit 3,200 square-metre sports hall that overlooks the city’s sports fields of Bolton Park. Community facilities include studios for martial arts, boxing, dance and yoga, a café, conference and meeting rooms, care centre and youth drop-in hub.  

Referencing the farming region’s grain silos, the Centre presents as two elliptical buildings clad in zincalume steel at Wagga Wagga’s urban edge. Containing the Club’s multi-purpose spaces, community and staff areas, the ‘silos’ frame a glass entry atrium that continues through as an internal avenue to the main sports hall. A mix of innovative technologies plus passive and active sustainable design is embedded to make a meaningful contribution to a low emissions future.
