Monash University High Performance Sport Centre

The Monash University High Performance Sport Centre (HPSC), formerly known as the Melbourne Cricket Centre, is located at 13 Duerdin St Clayton, just an 8 minute walk across Blackburn Rd from Monash Sport, Clayton.

The Monash University HPSC will provide a vital service to our current and future High Performance programs and athletes.  Boasting 1500 square metres of fully netted indoor training area, gym & circuit training facilities, medical room, large boardroom and administration space, the centre is a truly unique facility in the University sporting sector.

The HPSC will also cater for the needs of our Talent ID and School Health & Sport testing programs while continuing to offer the general public access to a quality indoor facility.

This unique facility also opens up opportunities to establish strategic alliances to provide expertise and research opportunities for other elite sporting teams, community groups and state government sectors.
