Nunawading Basketball Centre

Had an exchange with some SEDA students. I was doing casual shooting but The students were swearing loudly near my kid. I went up to the SEDA kids to tell them to please stop and go onto another court but they proceeded and continued to yell and Curse Purposely absolutely disgusting

Since the pandemic, the standard of reffing has dropped significantly. Instead of acknowledging this the “supervisor” sits by the court and does absolutely nothing, making your team feel like you are the problem. We had one of our players foul out last week before the entire other team even had one foul. The attitude here feels agist. The coordinator, Andrew Cavlock, doesn’t want a bar of you when you email to ask a question or make a suggestion. He replies pretty much suggesting you play elsewhere, which I would recommend you do as it’d be better than here. I’ve played for 24 of my 30 years here, and I’m done. It’s no fun anymore. Well done, Nuna.

Sent my son to the holiday camp, picked him up 1 hour earlier due to diff appointment. Noticed super loud environment. Coach was talking through a microphone. It was soooo loud, even for my ears.Around 100kids were sitting on big stairs and only 2 were playing. Looked like a competition to me. My son attended soccer camp and tennis but basketball was our least favorite one. Loud, crowded and it felt more like quantity over quality to me. My son wasn't impressed either after I asked him how it went. Wont attend again

For future reference and advice for the stadium, put your referees through some proper training before letting them do a game. These 14 year olds that want to backchat and give bad calls are no good. On the good side the courts are decent

I currently compete in a Men’s Division on a week night. I’ve played in this association for approximately 5 seasons and it has gotten worse and worse. We were placed in a division with a refs team (which is fine) and were advised that because the association has insufficient ref numbers that the ref team would play there games 6:30pm at Nunawading. The rest of the league are forced to play at surrounding suburb stadiums (either 8:30/09:30pm) which are sub par at best until a sufficient amount of refs can be organised, meaning the rest of the league only play at Nunawading once every 5 weeks. It’s since been 17 weeks within the season and nothing has changed or been communicated, the ref team still solely plays at Nunawading at 6:30pm!My frustration boiled over completely when the association was advised by multiple teams throughout the leagues that the basketballs being used are of low quality. They took on this feedback by asking teams to pay $8 extra in fees in order to purchase more basketballs. Although $8 is not much I’m dumbfounded how incompetent/oblivious this association has become and start to wonder where our registration fees go, because it doesn’t go to improving ref numbers or new basketballs. Before this season we were advised Team turnover was a concern coming into this season and can tell you that won’t change any time soon and that they can add one more team to that turnover list too.

With a child who plays basketball all across Melbourne, and so having been to many, many stadiums, this has to be one of the worst stadiums by modern standards. Whilst the courts themselves are in reasonable condition, the seating for spectators is almost non-existent, and is so close to the court markings that you could high-five a player running past (or trip the coach over as they pace up and down the sidelines). Incredibly loud (yes I know, it's a basketball stadium, not a library), scorers bench has no room for more than two people (in rep, there must be four). It feels like a 1970s school gym. Lift your game.

I send my little two girls here all the time. They love it here but facilities are a bit old

Usual type of regional Basketball centre. Good concession with a decent coffee.

Court 5 only skinny ppl can score. Others can't fit behind desk

My 2 children went to multiple basketball camps at this stadium and they came back very happy kids. Management has been very helpful in organization and the coaches has been extraordinary. They made sure all children are looked after and they learned a great deal. Thank you so much!! What a wonderful experience.
