Construction of our €14.7 million Sports Science and Recreation facility on the TU Dublin Tallaght campus commenced in October 2020. The building was handed over by the main contractor ABM in February 2023 and was officially opened in September 2023 by TU Dublin President, Professor David FitzPatrick.

The building provides an extra 3,282 m2 of space and will increase our overall campus capacity by between 600 and 660 students.

 Facilities include a sports hall catering for a range of indoor sports, including basketball, soccer, and badminton. The hall also caters for TU Dublin Sports Clubs, Student Societies, volunteering groups and an Exams Hall. We now use the main Sports Hall as a venue for our Graduation events and as a location for local Community programmes. On the first floor we have a gym and fitness suite. This includes resistance, cardio and gym equipment and is available throughout the year to our students and staff.

The Sports Science element of the building provides two lecture theatres, three classrooms and exercise medicine laboratories. The laboratories support research and teaching in exercise physiology, exercise rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, anthropometry, biomechanics, and performance analysis. 

Students enrolled in our 4-year Applied Social Care and Early Childcare Education and Care programmes also attend classes in the building and benefit from dedicated Art, Music, and Drama rooms. They students also receive lectures here on Child Development, Psychology and Outdoor Recreation.

Some other associated works to go along with this development include landscaped pedestrian areas, footpaths and 56 unit covered bicycle-parking area. We also have plans for an adjacent grass playing pitch covering 140 x 90m with floodlights, scoreboard, spectator seating and ball catch nets.
