If Amatuer Basketball is your game then Dandenong Indoor Sport Stadium is the place to come. Every day you can play on one of the 10 courts and there are numerous competitions playing most days of the week. It os one fo the biggest leagues in the country. Come down on Monday nights to see the fantastic E & F Grades play some champagne bball.

Equipment: Just bring your sports gear and you can hire basketballs.

Favorite thing: Dont stay in Dandenong, unless you need to. It isnt the prettiest place to visit and basically you only would come here if you were visiting people who lived here. Dandenong is not in any way a tourist destination. Stay in Melbourne if you want to stay somewhere.

Fondest memory: If you come to Dandenong you might get to meet me, but I doubt it cause I try to get out whenever I can, I live here but Dandenong doesnt have much in terms of entertainment or activities.
