Australian Rugby Union announced it will develop a world-class training facility and community sporting hub in Sydney, following a $20 million funding commitment from the Federal Coalition and the NSW State Government. 

The facility -- to be known as 'Australian Rugby Development Centre' -- will be located at TG Millner Field, Marsfield, in Sydney's North West. 

TG Millner Field will be transformed into a high performance sport centre and training facility for Australia's national Rugby teams including the Qantas Wallabies and will act as the Olympic base for Australia's Men's and Women's Sevens teams . 

It will also feature the Ella Brothers Indigenous Education Centre, which will enable the ARU and Lloyd McDermott Rugby Development Team (LMRDT) to connect more young Indigenous men and women with training and scholarship opportunities.
