Centennial Parklands Sports Centre reviews
18 It's a pretty convenient location, with plenty public transport options and some parking. There are good showering and bathroom facilities, and plenty of benches for resting etc.
The synthetic grass courts vary in conditions; some have a few bumps from the tree roots, and quite a bit of debris from the dropped leaves, sticks and Moreton bay figs. It can be a bit dangerous, but there are sweepers around to clear if needed.
Centennial park is too good. A big landscaping park. Too nice ambiance and lots of good standard path ways for walking and doing exercises. A nice park and work visiting it every day
Very dangerous courts, they are full of leafs and slippery, had 2 falls due to this today. They definitely need maintenance and cleaning.
I catch a bus from there on the bus road. You can still catch some buses on Anzac Parade here. There rebuilding bus shelters here.
The parking situation is absolutely horrendous during competition time. Cars are parked against the gate closest to Moore Park Rd which blocks half the driving lane and makes it impossible to park in the actual marked spaces. There should at least be signs indicating no parking along the gate so that cars can safely pass through or park without scratching other cars. They seriously need to fix this!
5 aside is not based on promotion or relegation, you get put into a division.that's fine if you have a good team, but if you're looking to play casually and in the tip division, its not so fun. Would be similar to Arsenal playing in the European Super League, but without being happy to participate.
Don't get conned paying.we went there first time and paid $50 for a basketball court. Its free for all
Centennial Parklands is a wonderful place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Full of history and life with plenty of space for all. Parking can sometimes be an issue in the more popular parts but there's more spaces if you explore the eastern end.
Courts are pretty good and the system of getting onto the courts is great (they send you a code for the door).
But recently every time we play at night time the lights don’t come on or half of them don’t work, meaning you’re playing in dark.
Basketball courts are in great condition and are free (unless you want to reserve a court and have lights on at night Mon-Fri). If you are looking for pickup ball, this is the place to go. Very easy to jump into games for all levels, very accepting atmosphere.
Make sure it doesn't rain before booking or they will not reschedule. I was forced to play under light rain according to them. Grass was very slippery and injury risk high so we stopped playing. I was told that I was not going to get credit for another day because the coaches were still on the court. I seriously question what was driving the coaches to keep coaching little kids under the rain.
EDITED: Contacted by e-mail as suggested in the comment below and nothing was even tried to be solved. It seems more like a response to make look as they care about customer service. In practice, they do not.
The place is very good and nice, but it is the first time that I am going to play with friends from other countries, when we started to play they kicked us out even though we had reservations, Mr. Ben's treatment and service was unpleasant and offensive.finally we couldn't play even though we paid the reservation
Good fields and facilities, but sadly we had a really bad experience with the manager Ben Fisher, who treated us in a very bad way 10 minutes after we paid for the field, because they double booked the place and some kids arrived to play at the same time.
We are a group of international people that loves to practice sports and have a healthy and friendly life.
Today Monday at 3: 30 pm we showed up at the football field to play (very good location and decent facilities. We did not book. At 3: 45 pm a very nice lady came by kindly asking us to pay for the field hire fee, for which we agreed and paid without hesitation.
What started as a great experience turned out not to be. Unfortunately and without no one notifying us, 10 minutes after paying the couch of a kids team requested us to leave because his team had booked too and always plays Mondays at 4pm.
Confused, suddenly the manager (Ben Fisher) shows up with vulgar manners pushing us to get out as the kids had booked. We paid 10 min before, and that is the reason we did not understand him approaching us in such a rude way. He honestly treats us in a way that I have never seen in my whole life.
This is not the first time I encounter this "gentleman" and his attitude towards people and incompetency is always very similar, which is inconceivable for handling the role of management and customer success at the venue.
We paid for the services; they commit an error of double booking and treat us like "dogs": threatening us with calling the police; saying we were trespassing and so forth.
If there is something I cannot stand in life are situations of inequality and unfairness.
I’m pretty convinced no lawsuit will succeed, but who wants to be threatened? Who wants to hire a lawyer for that? It’s not worth it.
At least I hope you investigate the incident and remedy the situation, so
that no more customers suffer this invidious treatment.
Yours sincerely,
Christian Villalón.
Have been playing tennis here for close to 20 years now and the attention to cleanliness has dropped away significantly in the past couple of years. The bathrooms are regularly filthy for such a prominent and busy centre.
Have had some trouble with access recently on the Moore Park courts. Today was the second time that we were locked out of the court that we had booked, and were unable to get anybody on the phone to help. The new electronic locking system also means that if you accidentally hit a tennis ball into another court, you are not able to go and get it! We have been frequenting these courts for a couple of years now, and considering the deterioration quality will probably not be back for a while.
Recently booked these courts for court hire to have a social hit with my work colleagues.
Extremely disappointed with the condition of the courts we had been assigned to. They did not seem to be maintained, and the hard courts had cracks in them and seemed unsafe to play on.
Considering these courts were at a premium price its safe to say we expected better quality. The sport of tennis deserves better.
WILL NOT BE RETURNING.
I recently removed my step son from his coach Adrian at this tennis center. My son informed me his methods were out dated and didn't improve at all under his guidance. It is unfortunate that coaches like this still exist and it's no wonder why we are losing children from this sport. My son has now take up horse riding around centennial park.
The facilities were great and the gentleman behind the desk, I believe his name is spelt Doorgesh. This gentleman's customer service was excellent and should be commended for conducting himself in a professional manner.
