Our newest training venue came online. Beaconhills College has 2 large courts, competitive hire costs, equipment storage, and is a very exciting new facility in an area of high population growth, accessible directly by the M1. Those members that attended these trial sessions were really pleased with the quality of the venue, and some of the best comments people had to share with us were about more space, particularly for serving and between courts.
This venue is a shift away from our current location base in Dandenong and Keysborough and has been carefully considered by the club throughout the ongoing development of our Strategic Plan that will be made available to members before the end of preseason. We are happy to receive feedback on the venue from all members, and we're excited to hear what you think about Beaconhills College. The club is also receiving support from Volleyball Victoria during this move as our move here is a key element of their own strategic plan.
Based on our club postcode data, most members will experience either the same or decreased travel time due to the freeway accessibility. For those members who have an increased travel time, this increase will be around 10 minutes or less.
