Indoor centre officially opened<br />
SYDENHAM INDOOR Centre<br />
was officially opened over the<br />
weekend, in an event attended by<br />
over 75 guests.<br />
The multi-functional centre<br />
has been open for use since July<br />
3, with Sydenham Cricket Club<br />
hosting holiday programmes last<br />
month.<br />
The Sydenham Park-based<br />
building will be used by local<br />
cricket, netball, hockey and futsal<br />
clubs, as well as junior gymnastics<br />
and coaching seminars.<br />
Sunday’s event was MC’d<br />
by former club president Tom<br />
White, with a karakia performed<br />
by local kaumatua Ruawhita<br />
Pokaia.<br />
There were also speeches<br />
from Spreydon/Cashmere<br />
Ward chair Callum Ward,<br />
Sydenham Park Complex president<br />
Steve Smith, and Sydenham<br />
Cricket Club president Graham<br />
Harris, who was also the driver<br />
of the project.<br />
Although the centre was largely<br />
built to benefit the cricketers of<br />
the Sydenham community, it will<br />
host countless other sports clubs,<br />
schools and community groups.<br />
• The occasion was also<br />
used to launch the club’s<br />
125th Jubilee book, which<br />
is now available. Orders<br />
can be made from the<br />
Sydenham Indoor Centre’s<br />
