The Diamond Creek Stadium is a community led initiative and a high priority for our local community. This facility will address an unmet demand for sports and performance facilities in the Shire of Nillumbik.
The stadium will be located between the Diamond Creek East Primary School and Diamond Valley Secondary College and will include:
multi-use design incorporating performance/auditorium space to be used by education, sports and community groups
three multi-purpose sports courts
retractable seating for 900
Olympic standard gymnastics space
café and reception areas
office space, change and toilet facilities
storage
viewing/programming areas and community meeting space.
The $10.3 million project has widespread community backing and joint support from each level of government.
We have 90 per cent of the funds needed to get the stadium built with contributions from:
Nillumbik Shire Council: $3.3 million
Australian Government: $3.5 million
Victorian Government: $2.5 million
But we need your help to raise the final $1 million.
There are three ways you can help: community banking, donations and sponsorship.
