Nambour <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre, Petrie Park Road, Nambour (council owned)<br />
The Nambour <strong>Aquatic</strong> Centre is located within Petrie Park which is within walking distance from the<br />
Nambour town centre. The facility operates under a lease which expires in April <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
This facility features a 50 metre pool (compliant depth for water polo and full length grandstand),<br />
25 metre indoor heated pool, junior/toddler leisure pool, kiosk and amenities block.<br />
Assessment<br />
The 2006 census 10 kilometre population catchment is estimated to be 40,533 persons. This aquatic<br />
centre complete with its grandstand makes it attractive for events, however the age of infrastructure,<br />
lack of car parking, and poor exposure and connectivity, limits the capacity and potential of this<br />
facility. Feasibility research is required to inform future redevelopment or relocation options.<br />
