Les Ormes has announced its creating a new £1m activity centre.
It will include climbing walls, a 'Ninja Warrior course' and the island's first trampoline park.
Nathan Maguire from Les Ormes says the plans support Jersey Sport's strategy to keep children 'fit for the future':
"The Activity Centre will offer fun, fitness, mental stimulation and adventure all year round. The centre will also offer school holiday activity weeks, adult and toddler sessions, birthday parties, corporate events and specific sessions for mentally and physically disabled children by our trained staff."
However, the existing Soccer Dome will close in March to make way for the new development.
Mr Maguire says its use has been declining:
"Over the last 2 years, there has been an increase in the number of artificial pitches in Jersey and this has had an effect on the usage of Les Ormes Soccer Dome. The new Activity Centre will increase the number of people using our facilities."
The new facility is due to open in July 2019, in time for the school summer holidays.
