JackJumpers High Performance Training Centre

In May 2024, the Tasmanian Government announced plans to relocate the JackJumpers High Performance Training Centre from Wilkinsons Point to the Kingborough Sports Precinct at Kingston View Drive, Kingston.

The High Performance Training Centre will provide training facilities for the JackJumpers, freeing up court space in other facilities currently used by the JackJumpers.

The training centre has been thoughtfully designed to ensure it is accessible and available for community use, fostering inclusivity and engagement with the new facility.

Infrastructure Tasmania, within the Department of State Growth, has been working with the JackJumpers and Kingborough Council to progress the project.
