The Vocational Team, in conjunction with our member (and sports aficionado), Peter Duras, has arranged a unique opportunity to experience a guided tour of the Melbourne Cricket Ground and the National Sports Museum on Sunday 8 October.
Given Peter's involvement, we will have access to areas of the MCG that are not normally included in the package. Highlights of this must-see tour include:
- The famous MCC Long Room

- Player change rooms
- Cricketers’ viewing room
- Ron Casey Media Centre
- Portrait of Sir Donald Bradman and Sachin Tendulkar
- A walk on the arena
- Cricket Victoria Bill Lawry Centre
- Ponsford Stand
- City Terrace with view’s of Melbourne’s skyline.
Our itinerary for the day will be:
- 10:00 for 10.15am - Meet at Gate 3 to commence (MCG) tour - Exclusive all access pass
- 12noon - Short break at MCG Café
- 1pm - Tour of the National Sports Museum
- 2pm - Tour concludes
Those wanting more fellowship can proceed to a local cafe/bar (Venue TBC) for a late lunch/early dinner.
We've been able to secure a heavily discounted rate. Cost of tour is $20 per member and $12 for kids under 15YO. This can be paid on the day.
So that we can keep an eye on the numbers, please call Peter now if you haven't registered.
