The Waiheke Recreation Centre is a central asset to the local Waiheke community for sports and recreation.  It’s the only indoor sporting facility on the island and is a very popular asset during the winter months.

Built-in 1991 by Auckland City Council, it’s run on a Not For Profit / Charitable basis on a “shared usage” model.  During the day, the local High School has exclusive usage. After 4 pm, at weekends & during school holidays, it becomes a public facility where a number of User Groups run and manage regular indoor sporting events – These are all publicly accessible – everything from basketball to netball, indoor 5-a-side football to gymnastics, martial arts and more.

The Waiheke Rec Centre is managed by the Waiheke Recreation Centre Trust (WRCT) – a not-for-profit, registered charity organization in New Zealand.  The trust is made up of trustees (volunteers) who represent the various User groups, Waiheke High School and the Local Board
