Collinson designs multi-sports hub for St Neots Prep School
Sports facility specialist Collinson has supplied St Neots Preparatory School in Hampshire, UK with a new sports hall.
The sports hall was designed using Collinson’s Challenger, an adaptable building system made from a tensile steel frame covered in a heavy duty architectural membrane.
The Challenger was connected to Collinson’s Evolution structure to create a large sports hub, featuring a swimming pool, showers and changing rooms, a reception area and storage space.
The hall also plays host to a five badminton court sized hall, that was designed to meet Sport England specifications. It also incorporates a full sized tennis court, five mini tennis courts and features netball, basketball and indoor cricket nets.
The courts are designed to provide flexibility and can be divided into a two/three court orientation, allowing for separate sports to take place in their own areas at the same time. The hall also has a viewing gallery, offering spectators a bird’s eye view of the hall.
Dan Collinson, Collinson’s managing director, says: “St Neots is an excellent example of how versatile our building system is. The design has been configured to incorporate different structure types, optimising the benefits of each, which are then seamlessly linked to create a sports hub.”
