BOND UNIVERSITY

Gold Coast, Australia

Project Summary

A return visit to Bond University for another netting upgrade. Gabba originally installed the university's behind-goal netting, and this time the brief was to replace the ageing AFL netting and retire the removable pulley system in favour of a cleaner, more reliable fixed installation. The new system stands 30m wide x 9m high and is built to last.
