A New Community Sports Hub

The future of sport in Burgess Hill is bright, with the regeneration set to see a network of complementary leisure facilities in the north west of the town to help promote an active lifestyle and benefit all age groups.
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 Northern Arc development will also deliver a new Centre for Outdoor Sport on the main gateway into town, south of the A2300 which will help complement these sites by providing over 9 ha of additional sporting facilities to meet identified needs from the local community and sports clubs.

The project is at an early stage and the Council has provided indicative plans to give local people an idea of what could be delivered on site. Extensive public engagement will be carried out with the local community over the next 12 months to shape and refine the proposals. with the aim of obtaining planning permission in 2023 and opening first class sports facilities to the public in 2025. Funding for the multi-million-pound project is being provided by developer contributions to ensure essential infrastructure improvements are delivered alongside new homes at the Northern Arc and across Burgess Hill.
