The Arc - A New Community Sports Hub
In 2017, The Triangle Leisure Centre saw the first stage of this investment. This included a £2.2m refit to provide a new gym, climbing wall, additional sports studio and café to bolster its existing facilities. This comes alongside a refurbishment to the Leisure Pool in Summer 2018. The plans have supported the St Paul’s Catholic College sports facilities which are available for local sports teams to hire.
The new state of the art sporting facility known as The Arc is now open for public use. Situated on an 8.6-hectare block of land within the Brookleigh development, the Arc provides first-class facilities for the district. The sports mix, refined over three years through extensive engagement, consultation and data analysis, supports development opportunities for young people and adults by providing inclusive facilities for
- A floodlit 3G football pitch
- An artificial grass rugby pitch
- A modern changing facility
- Three junior natural turf football pitches
- A full-sized natural turf football pitch
- An artificial cricket wicket with a turf outfield
