The Tennant Creek Youth Centre opened in late September 2023 as one of the commitments of the 78 million dollar Barkly Regional Deal. The custom-built space consists of a ninja warrior course, basketball hoops, activity breakout rooms and a kitchen for centre staff to supply youth people with food and is of course very well airconditioned to battle the Barkly heat. But recently local residents have raised concerns over changes in the centre hours and supervision of the young people who frequent the space.
