Oakfield Sports Centre
Case Study


The state-of-the-art Oakfield Sports Centre has been designed to support a diverse range of activities, creating an inclusive environment for users of all ages and abilities.

A new-build sports complex in Jersey is providing high-quality multi-sport facilities for the island’s community following the specification of over 2,400m2 Gerflor flooring and Gradus accessories throughout the development.

 

The state-ofthe-art centre has been designed to support a diverse range of sporting activities while creating an inclusive environment for users of all ages and abilities. By combining performance-driven sports flooring with durable supporting products, the facility is well-equipped to meet the demands of both competitive and recreational use.

 

Developed as part of the Government of Jersey’s Inspiring Active Places Strategy, Oakfield Sports Centre has been designed to support the transition of sports provision from Fort Regent, while accommodating a wide range of activities for schools, colleges, sports clubs and the wider community. Operated by Active Jersey, the facility is used by local schools and colleges alongside community groups and sports organisations.

 

At the heart of the development was a 2,000m² multi-court sports hall designed to accommodate badminton, netball, basketball, volleyball and indoor cricket and which would require a world class Olympic pedigree sustainable indoor sports vinyl surface. Supporting areas at the facility, including storage spaces and circulation areas, also required durable flooring solutions capable of performing under consistent daily use.

“The hall featured a number of movement joints within the screed. The importance of tolerances and achieving an SR2 level was agreed with the contractors, which meant the Taraflex SL flooring could be laid over the screeded floor. This reduced downtime on site and ensured a faster installation to meet the project and client needs.”
