Niels Hansen Basketball Stadium is a purpose-built basketball stadium located in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. It is the home of the Kalgoorlie-Boulder Basketball Association and the Goldfields Giants.
The stadium was built in 1979 and was renovated in the late 1990s.[2] In 2018, plans were put in place for an expansion of the stadium.[3] In 2022, a $13 million stadium redevelopment was set in motion for two new courts to be added to the existing three at the facility.[4][5]
On 23 February 2004, the stadium played host to the Perth Wildcats in an official National Basketball League regular season game against the Hunter Pirates.[6][7][8]
The stadium also hosted an official Women's National Basketball League regular season game featuring the Perth Lynx in 2009.[9]
