Indoor centre on target for Canterbury Cricket

Canterbury Cricket's new indoor training centre on Iverson Terrace is on target for its July opening.

The concrete floor has been laid in the 40 metre x 20 metre warehouse section, and contractors have begun to erect the walls.

The building will house a four-lane indoor training centre as well as the CCA offices, which will be relocated from their central city location.

Once completed, the building will open up a host of opportunities for new coaching and development initiatives in Canterbury. These will include the permanent set-up of a bowling machine, on-site video analysis and all-year-round one-on-one coaching. Local CCA clubs, Suburban clubs, CCA districts and schools will also get the chance to train in a top quality facility.

It is an exciting development for Canterbury Cricket, who have relied on converting warehouses and hiring other facilities over the past five years to provide adequate pre-season and indoor training facilities.
