Situated directly across the road from the iconic ANZ Stadium, the NSWRL COE is a state-of-the-art facility that provides representative sides a place to train, prepare and manage their sporting ambitions.

NSWRL’s new home is much more than a sporting facility. It pays homage to the supporters and community in sharing this asset and providing incomparable access to the players. Walking in from Dawn Fraser Avenue towards the facility, a huge artistic feature screen sits above the main entry, sets the theme and provides the facility’s mark in Sydney’s prestigious sporting park.

The complex office advanced facilities, including a huge open plan gymnasium providing direct access to the adjacent external training field, premium change rooms, hydrotherapy and recovery pools, rehabilitation rooms, a sports science laboratory, executive players kitchen and function area, press conference auditorium rooms, media-editing suite and administration offices.

A tunnel directly links the facility to ANZ Stadium, which will be used by players during the State of Origin game night providing supporters a rare glimpse of their team.
