The University of Cambridge Sports Centre by Arup Associates sits at the edge of the town's green belt and was designed as a response to its rural environment and to an extremely versatile program

位于剑桥大学西部扩张的新的剑桥大学体育中心是AUP员工的手工艺品。现在开放给学生，学术人员和公众，建筑坐落在城镇的绿化带的边缘，并有效地响应其农村环境和一个极其灵活的项目。这是西剑桥总体规划中的一个三相方案的第一部分。

为了实现一个足够灵活的开放计划空间以适应不同的体育活动，该中心的圆顶状屋顶跨越36米，并打开，让自然光和通风得以进入。
它是建筑中最重要的功能之一，因为它是ARUP的建筑师和工程师密切合作的结果。
光伏电池、太阳能热水收集器和外部机电致动器控制了立面百叶窗“打开和关闭”，有助于建筑的节能策略。
与典型体育场馆分开的另一个特点是一种木材翅片的柱廊，它紧贴入口立面（北），为建筑提供了一种醒目的方法。

在室内，体育中心的房间灯光明亮，通风良好，声音良好。在我们七月号的时尚故事游戏中，这座综合体设有一个八层运动场，可容纳400人，有举重训练设施、壁球、橄榄球、伊顿五人和羽毛球，以及多用途场地。

剑桥大学体育设施的最新增建已经被视为一项巨大的成功。托尼·莱蒙斯大学体育教育主任说，这是“对大学学生提供的运动和锻炼机会的重大贡献”。在ARUP的不同学科之间的良好平衡的合作，这座建筑实现了它的目的，同时是节能和善待其环境。

The building is the first of a three-phase scheme within the West Cambridge Masterplan

Inside, the Sports Centre's rooms are brightly lit, well ventilated, and acoustically sound

The complex accommodates an eight-court sports hall with tiered seating for 400 people, facilities for weight training, squash, rugby, Eton fives, and badminton, as well as multi-purpose spaces

To achieve an open-plan space that would be flexible enough to adapt to different sporting activities, the centre's dome-like roof spans over 36 metres and opens up to let natural light and ventilation in 

Made of glulam beams, it is one of the building's most important features, as it is a result of the close collaboration between ARUP Associate's architects and engineers

One more feature that sets the building apart from typical sports venues is a colonnade of timber fins, which clads the entrance façade, making for a striking approach to the building
