360° Tour

- Long & Triple jump facility
- Pole vault and high jump facility
- Thrower’s practice cage for discus, hammer and shot
- Multi sports hall
The specialist flooring, which is the first of its kind in the UK, not only accommodates all multi sports activities, but it is also durable enough to take 6mm spikes, which is essential for quality athletics training. Athletes can train all year round in a safe and controlled environment. We will offer a structured programme of coaching for school children and support initiatives aimed at increasing participation.
The flexibility of both halls allows the sports facility to hold large competitions and events.
