Grace Church New Sports Complex

Grace Church Sports Complex is a 34,000-square-foot, two-story addition that expands the church’s spaces for recreation, ministry, and gathering. The project includes two full-sized basketball courts, multipurpose exercise rooms, and expanded lobby and café areas. A new two-story children’s ministry wing complements the sports complex and connects its architectural scale to the existing church facility.

Grace Church Sports Complex Design

The addition brings several distinct activities together within an expanded church campus. Basketball courts and exercise rooms provide dedicated spaces for recreation, while the lobby, café, and concessions areas accommodate gathering outside the activity spaces.

The design also addresses the relationship between the new sports complex and the existing church. Positioned against the front of the complex, the children’s ministry wing gives the building a sense of proportion and scale that complements the established facility. This placement makes the ministry wing an important part of both the project’s program and its architectural composition.

Basketball Courts and Exercise Spaces

Two full-sized basketball courts form a central component of the sports addition. These courts are complemented by two multipurpose exercise rooms, providing separate settings for different types of physical activity.

Supporting spaces include a lobby and concessions area, restrooms, and storage. Together, these components provide the activity areas and practical support spaces needed within the sports complex.

Project features include:

• Two full-sized basketball courts
• Two multipurpose exercise rooms
• Expanded lobby and café areas
• Lobby and concessions space
• Restrooms
• Storage
• New two-story children’s ministry wing

Children’s Ministry and Campus Integration

The children’s ministry wing adds dedicated ministry space while helping integrate the sports complex with the church’s existing architecture. Its position at the front of the addition establishes a transition in scale between the recreational facility and the church.

Grace Church Sports Complex brings recreation, children’s ministry, and gathering spaces together through one coordinated expansion. The project illustrates an approach to church architecture that considers indoor activities, supporting amenities, and the relationship between new construction and an existing campus.
