A sporting moment happens once. Never to be repeated. A split second in time, captured forever. They live in the minds of the people: who competed, who were there, and who pass their stories from generation to generation. They shape our collective view of ourselves, and our country. They become the blueprint for what we value and an inspiration for all. The National Sports Museum houses Australia's most comprehensive sporting collection, showcasing more than 3500 objects related to the greatest moments in Australian sporting history. Located at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), the NSM celebrates the contribution that sport has made within the development of our uniquely Australian culture. The achievements of Australian sportsmen and women at all levels are showcased within an environment rich with sporting artefacts and interactive technology. Showcasing the great moments in Australia's sporting history, the museum includes a number of permanent exhibitions focused on Australian football, boxing, basketball, cricket, cycling, golf, horse racing, netball, Olympic and Paralympic Games, rugby union, rugby league, soccer, and tennis. Also featured is the MCG story and the Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) Museum and NSM Cinema Sport features non-stop sporting action. The museum also includes two 3D theatrical experiences with Australian cricket legend Shane Warne in 'Cricket Found Me' and Australian football star James Hird in 'Off the Bench'. Game On is a fully interactive gallery allowing you to personally experience the thrill of participation in a diverse range of sporting environments and activities. More than just a museum, the NSM captures the spirit of Australian sporting life and relives the moments that have shaped Australia's rich sporting traditions and cultural heritage. |
