Our Facilities

The Government is investing in a network of world-class training and competition facilities to help ensure New Zealand athletes have the best possible environment in which to excel.

The Government’s investment includes facilities for testing, training, treatment and recovery areas for high performance athletes at the National Training Centre in Auckland. This is the base for High Performance Sport New Zealand staff in Auckland and includes strength, conditioning and recovery areas, a high performance sports science centre, and support service and administration areas. 

The Government has also invested in regional high performance centres at Wellington and Dunedin, and is committed to investing in facilities for high performance athletes in Canterbury. The Government is investing $7 million for the high performance components of the National Cycling Centre of Excellence in Cambridge, which will cover all Olympic bike disciplines, and will feature a world-class covered velodrome. 

The Government has also invested in the high performance centre for rowing at Lake Karapiro and in a national ocean water sports centre in Auckland.
