Last week, the Croatian City of Šibenik presented the conceptual design plans for Jamnjak Sports and Recreation Zone at the Trokut Centre for New Technologies and Entrepreneurship. More specifically, it unveiled its plans to build a modern sports centre with infrastructure for both recreational exercise and professional sports.
The Jamnjak Sports and Recreation Zone will be located in the former barracks and cover an area of 190,378 square metres. In this space, it will hold various sports facilities such as multifunctional and gymnastics halls, running tracks, boxing and kickboxing halls, table tennis halls, bowling alleys, squash halls and sports fields.
In addition to this, the zone will have a children’s playground, training ground, spa facilities, catering establishments, and an administration. The author of the project Iva Čogelja Juras commented on the sports and recreation centre, sharing:
“With this project, Šibenik will get a space for sports and recreation that will serve active athletes, recreationists, children and young people, the elderly and all other interested groups. The total area of the Jamnjak zone is 190,378 square metres, and within this scope, there are buildings with a total area of 2,393 square metres. Some of the buildings are in a preserved condition and suitable for reconstruction, while the remaining ones will be demolished and replacement buildings will be built in their place.”
In a press release, the City of Šibenik shared that it has designed the conceptual plan according to a model that will allow financing from different sources and in different phases. What is more, it aims to finance the majority of the project by applying for EU funds.
