What do the Wallabies, Wallaroos, UTS sports science students and everroll® flooring all have in common?  Answer: they are all co-residents of the UTS Rugby Australia Building in Sydney.

The Rugby Australia Building is a ‘first-of-a-kind’ facility that supports collaboration between tertiary-level sports students and professional-level athletes, by means of co-location.  

The facility’s unique combination of users includes:

 1. SPORTS PROFESSIONALS

• Wallabies (Australian Men’s National Rugby Union Team)
• Wallaroos (Australian Women’s Nationals Rugby Union Team)
• Australian Men’s Sevens Rugby Teams
• Australian Women’s Sevens Rugby Teams

2. SPORTS EDUCATION 

• Lecturers
• Students (from exercise science & management programs, physiotherapy & rehabilitation and sports media)
• Researchers

 3. COMMUNITY GROUPS

• Other national sporting teams
• International sporting teams
• Local schools
• Sporting clubs
• Community groups
• Indigenous organizations

The building’s capacity to accommodate such a diverse, high-performance group of users is testament to its carefully considered design and construction. The facility’s interior elements are also put to the test on a daily basis, no more so than the floor coverings that take a pounding from morning to night. The floor coverings endure constant foot-traffic; impact from sports activities and residual contaminants generated by regular, high performance use. 

Only certain floor coverings are suitable for a facility of this nature because there are so many factors to be considered. Some of the most important considerations are acoustics, hygiene, comfort, slip-resistance and endurance.   If you would like to learn why everroll® made the grade for this award winning building; or you would simply like to see more pictures and videos of the facility’s interior, then visit our project page:
