The Macquarie University Sport and Aquatic Centre (MUSAC) is located on the western side of the Macquarie University main campus in Sydney, Australia. MUSAC serves the general public and the university community, providing venues and facilities for 14 university sporting clubs. The centre has also hosted the Sydney Kings basketball team, Sydney FC soccer team, Sydney Swans AFL team, Tennis Australia and the Australian National Swimming Team for training and preparation for international events.[1]
The complex was greatly expanded at a cost of $17 million, opening in July 2007 adjacent to the existing sporting and gymnasium facilities. The expanded complex incorporates environmentally sustainable aspects including rainwater harvesting and strategically located orientation and shading devices, which had it nominated for a Royal Australian Institute of Architects award.[2]
