Talking Footy

The permanent home of Western Sydney Wanderers is set to be confirmed after the A-League franchise agreed to build a centre of excellence in Blacktown worth more than $18 million.

The Wanderers' long-term training base, offices and the location of their highly anticipated youth academy appears certain to remain at Blacktown International Sportspark. The venue's owner, Blacktown City Council, should confirm its part of the funding as early as Wednesday's council meeting.

The two parties have been in lengthy negotiations and reached an agreement in principle to build the Wanderers' elite training base and academy near their existing home. While a contract is yet to be signed, Fairfax Media understands that a deal appears a formality and the parties' lawyers are working through the finer contract details.

Well done to them, now lets remember the last team that built a building & called it "the centre of excellence"

THE Titans will sever ties with the Robina home that almost sent them broke to establish a new headquarters aimed at securing their survival for the next 20 years.

NRL boss Dave Smith has declared the Titans will not be relocated after backing the club’s planned move to a newly-constructed training facility at Coomera.

But the move will come with short-term pain, with the Titans to embark on a temporary 12-month move to The Southport School before a permanent shift to Coomera.

By ushering in the winds of change, the club will leave the $10.65 million training facility formerly known as the Centre of Excellence.
Dubbed “The Taj Mahal” when it was built in 2009, the six-storey building housed the Titans’ headquarters, giving the club the most cutting-edge infrastructure in the NRL.

But the club’s $25m financial crisis two years ago forced the Coast to sell the building to Bond University - and now the landlord’s $600,000 rent bill has driven the Titans out.

The Coomera headquarters will be operational by 2016, when the Titans, backed by the NRL as signatories, are handed a 20-year lease by Gold Coast City Council.

The Titans will not renew their Robina lease, which expires on November 1 - closing the door on the ill-fated building that became the club’s haunted house.

broke, & bullying the kids the kids out of the gym, at the local school!

Bad new for the GWS shite lol...

AFLs GWS will fall even further behind Soccer in Western Sydney Very amusing =D>

Great investment for Western Sydney (both the region and the Club) it also cements our position as a club for the whole of western sydney, games played in Parramatta and facilities in Blacktown (well Rooty Hill)

With both WSW and Sydney FC youth teams playing in the NPL next year? or is it 2016? pathway programs are looking good.

So Western Sydney will have the WSW COE as well as Football NSW facility at Valentine Park, good news all around

For those interested this is Valentine Park

Fields
There will be 2 artificial playing fields and 3 turf fields. Meaning that FNSW
will be able to cater for more people for longer periods of time.
Futsal and Multi Purpose Indoor Centre
Upgrading the floor and extending to make this a full size FIFA Futsal floor,
allowing FNSW to host major tournaments and showpiece events. There will
also be grandstand style seating allowing more people to watch. Along with
Futsal the centre will be capable of running basketball, netball, volleyball as
well as a range of other sports.
Accommodation
Once complete there will be 60 rooms with a range of bedding
configurations. Along with upgrades of the rooms and bathrooms FNSW
will have 3 breakout team rooms in which they can have team meetings,
conduct video analysis or just hang out.
Cafe and Dinning Room
The Dinning room is located above the Indoor Futsal Centre and will cater for
guest offering fully catered meals. FNSW is introducing an onsite cafe, this
cafe will be serving fresh made food and be open as long as VSP is.
Heated Pool
Indoor heated pool that will allow recovery and recreation for visiting teams
Home of Football
An exciting new building that will be home to FNSW as well as 6 change
rooms, up to 3 education centres and onsite canteens.
The new facilities will give FNSW the ability to deliver more courses, more
camps and hosts more Football events. VSP also has a large number of on
site parking spots allowing free and safe parking close to all the action.

So the biggest pack of slimey bludgers in Australian sport .. sooker..put their hand out again for thd tax payer to build them something

When will they stop robbing tax payers
When will they pay their own way for once

When will they pay back the 47 million they stole to embarras us with that lame arsed world cup bid

Fucking disgraceful

From Canberra Times

Sports Minster Andrew Barr has stood by the ACT government's financial support of the Canberra Raiders, despite revelations of the financial muscle behind the NRL club.

The territory government provides the rugby league strugglers with $1.4 million in appearance fees each year and $500,000 in payroll tax concessions.

dribbler dave when you receive money from centrelink, you cant class your self as a tax payer


the NRL has been propped up from the tax payers money for decades!

and next will be sydney fc's centre of excellence which is already undergoing construction as the south korea national football team saw us as the outstanding candidate for a training base in sydney, while the likes of lowly oman and jordan will utilize backwards RL facilities as their homebase

sydney's 2 a-league clubs have no problem finding funding for the future growth of the game, with youth sides starting from u10's up - the first of it's kind in sydney where professional clubs have total access to youth players at those young ages unlike rugby league, who start development squads from 15's and up. this is the first step of many in producing some outstanding young australian talent and for a-league clubs to make serious money from this investment

rumor is that manly have made inquiries to sydney fc on if they can use our facilities....

waider is throwing all his eggs into the basket hoping something bad happens to essendon

essentially

they're not going anywhere and it will be like as if nothing ever happened

they will continue to have nearly 8x the revenue that the raiders have

continue to have 40k+ crowds

continue to have huge memberships

whereas the waiders....will still be the but of all our jokes
