HIGHLY COMMENDED
MICHAEL WOODS SPORTS
AND LEISURE CENTRE Glenrothes, Fife
NOMINATED BY: Disability Sport Fife
ARCHITECT / LEAD DESIGNER: B3ARCHITECTS/cre8architecture
CLIENT: Fife Sports and Leisure Trust
The £21m new-build Michael
Woods Sports and Leisure
Centre is one of the most
striking local authority leisure
facilities in the UK. The primary
driver in the design of the new
centre has been the desire
to create an engaging and
stimulating environment that
improves health by actively
encouraging participation in
sports and leisure facilities.
This is a complex, bold and
dynamic project which is
a game-changer in terms
of its capacity to inspire
and liberate people to
become more active. It
is fully accessible, clearly
successful in terms of visitor
numbers and has given
the people of Glenrothes
an exciting and welcoming
new facility to take pride
in. It is a fantastic civic
building.
