sportsplex

Multi-venue athletic facility

A sportsplex is a large facility housing multiple athletic venues under one roof or campus—typically combining gyms, courts, pools, and fields.

The term blends "sports" with "complex" and usually describes commercial or municipal recreation centers: The new sportsplex has indoor soccer, basketball courts, and an Olympic-size pool.
