Sheldon College features an array of world-class sporting facilities
The financial commitment made to sport at Sheldon College is clearly demonstrated by the quality of our world-class sporting facilities, which have to be seen to be believed. In 2017, the College became the first school on Brisbane’s Southside to boast an IAAF certified 400 metre synthetic athletics track; while 2016 saw the construction of six, high quality, LED floodlit tennis courts and four first-class cricket nets. These facilities were added to our existing multi-million dollar indoor sports stadium, modern gymnasium, eight lane heated swimming pool, enclosed commercial learn to swim centre, outdoor multipurpose courts, enclosed hard courts, cross country running course and immaculately maintained natural turf playing fields, with plans for further improvements to be made in the near future.
"Our incredible sporting facilities offer our athletes and coaches every opportunity for success."
Mr David Savage – Director ‑ Projects, Facilities and Sheldon Academy of Sport
