We're incredibly proud to be welcoming the national cycling Centre of Excellence to Sleeman Sports Complex! With World Championships secured for both Track Cycling and BMX Racing in the lead into Brisbane 2032, current and future champions will have an opportunity to train day in and out within the world class venues in which they will be competing, maximising their home ground advantage. The centre will further position Sleeman Sports Complex as a national hub for cycling and other high performance sports.
A national cycling Centre of Excellence will be established in Brisbane as Queensland gears up for Brisbane 2032 🚲🌟 AusCycling's Action and Acceleration Centre of Excellence will position athletes for success with access to the world class Anna Meares Velodrome and Brisbane SX BMX Centre and support from the Queensland Academy of Sport. Paris Olympian Kristina Clonan is looking forward to calling the new centre home. “I’m very excited to be relocating back home to Queensland to be part of the new Action and Acceleration Centre of Excellence,” Clonan said. “The Queensland Academy of Sport has incredible facilities and Anna Meares Velodrome is a world-class track, so to be able to train on that incredible velodrome full-time will be amazing.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/gEC2sngM Stadiums Queensland

We're proud to share that we've partnered with Share the Dignity to install Dignity Vending Machines, dispensing FREE period products for anyone that needs them! Read more about this incredible initiative 👇
Here’s our dream… that there is access to period products wherever someone needs them. Our Bloody Big Survey alerted us to some alarming statistics, especially in sport with 68% of respondents saying they have missed sport due to their period and 60.2% of respondents saying they at least sometimes missed out on socialising with friends due to their period. So with that, we are so stoked to have met with Stadiums Queensland who also believe in our mission. We are thrilled to unveil the installation of our Dignity Vending Machines (DVM), dispensing FREE period products at some of our premier sports venues—Sleeman Sports Complex and QSAC Queensland Sports and Athletics Centre! Plus, we have expanded our impact across three of Queensland’s Recreation Precincts on the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and Townsville. This ground breaking initiative ensures that no one has to miss out on life's big moments due to lack of access to essential period products. By partnering with Stadiums Queensland and the Department of Tourism and Sport, we're committed to supporting communities and making a positive impact. Together, we’re smashing through barriers, tackling period poverty, and championing dignity for everyone. Because period products are a necessity, not a luxury, we're proud to be leading the charge to make them available in public spaces! With every training session, game, concert, and event, our DVMs will be there to support you – because everyone deserves access to the products they need, wherever they are.
