Outdoor Structures for Sporting Clubs and Facilities

Totally Outdoors has been proudly partnering with sporting clubs, councils, and facility managers across Melbourne and Victoria for over 30 years. We specialise in the design, supply, and construction of premium outdoor structures tailored to the needs of local sports clubs, community venues, and recreational spaces.

Whether you’re upgrading existing club facilities or planning a new project, our experienced team will guide you from concept to completion with practical, stylish, and durable solutions.

Custom Shelter and Walkway Solutions

Our in-house designers can create outdoor solutions tailored to your club’s unique requirements. From large-span covered areas to shaded walkways and spectator shelters, we provide structures that improve comfort and usability year-round. Our range includes:

• Fixed roof structures for long-term protection from sun and rain

• Insulated roofing systems that eliminate condensation—perfect for BBQ and social areas

• Shelters and walkways to improve access and member amenities

• Cantilevered or freestanding designs to maximise open space

Built to Withstand Australian Conditions

We understand that sporting clubs require outdoor structures that are strong, low maintenance, and built to last. That’s why we use Australian-made Victory Carport and Verandah systems featuring high-performance Colorbond steel.

These structures offer:

• Spans up to 14 metres for wide, open coverage

• Multiple roof profiles and design styles

• A vast range of Colorbond colours to match your club branding

• 30-year manufacturer warranties for long-term confidence

Our Process: We understand our clients value efficiency and transparency. At Totally Outdoors, we aim to make every project as seamless as possible, from consultation to completion.

Under normal circumstances, lead time from deposit to installation is approximately 7–8 weeks. This allows time for:

1. Architectural plans to be developed

2. Permit applications to be submitted and approved

3. Materials to be ordered and delivered

Important Notes:

• A 7-day cooling-off period is required by law before any building work may begin following a signed contract and deposit payment.

• Clients must provide current site house plans to begin the planning process. These can typically be sourced from your local council within 1–2 weeks.

• Our standard installation quotes include planning and building permits unless otherwise stated. (Refer to our DIY section for kit-only purchases.)

Do I Need a Building Permit? Yes—in most cases, building permits are required for roofed or structural outdoor projects. Your local council may also require a separate Planning Permit. Permits are site-specific and depend on the location, size, and style of your proposed structure.

Owner Builder Responsibilities: If a builder suggests you act as the “Owner Builder,” you are assuming full legal and safety responsibility for the project. This is commonly proposed by unregistered builders or those working on projects above $5,000. If the project exceeds $16,000, approval from the VBA (Victorian Building Authority) is mandatory, and the project must pass compliance checks upon property sale.

Before you build: We recommend contacting the Victorian Building Authority (1300 815 127) or your local council’s building and planning department to understand your obligations. Ask: “Will I need a building and/or planning permit for a roofed verandah or carport of [describe size and use]?”

Why Permits Matter: Permits ensure your project is safe, legal, and covered by warranty. Failure to obtain permits can result in costly modifications, removals, or compliance penalties.

With Totally Outdoors, your project is in trusted hands. We manage the entire process via The Project Centre—a knowledgeable partner experienced with council requirements across Melbourne and Victoria. Enjoy complete peace of mind with a fully supported and expertly built outdoor solution.
