SportPark, the multi award-winning office development designed by David Morley Architects for the UK’s sports sector at Loughborough University, is the new home for the National Governing Bodies (NGB’s) of many sports. The scheme provides a state-of-the-art environment enabling the NGB’s to share information and produce innovative approaches to best practice.

The first phase, completed in 2009 on Loughborough University’s Science and Enterprise Park, consists of three pavilions linked with glazed circulation spaces. The innovative scheme creates a naturally lit, naturally ventilated environment that connects people with the active landscape and forms an integrated place to work and play. The break out areas are varied and include small scale sports facilities and an outdoor sprint track. The stream that runs through this part of the campus has been incorporated into the design and given space to flourish in order to encourage biodiversity.
With sustainability and sport at its core, SportPark has already achieved an ‘excellent’ rating from BREEAM, the global environmental assessment mark.
Work has recently been completed for the second phase to create a fourth pavilion to expand SportPark, and was finished in April 2023.
