The athletic facility in the City of Shelbyville’s Blue River Park will provide a safe, indoor, multi-purpose sports venue that can be utilized for a wide variety of sporting and community events. Hardcourt and turf sports, sports training, cooking demonstrations, tradeshows, concerts, and other events can be held in the complex year-round. The Indoor Sports Complex is expected to attract roughly 140,000 visitors to the ARI region annually, resulting in roughly 26,000 hotel room nights and contributing $40 million during construction and $30 million per year after the facility becomes operational to the regional economy.

Not only is this facility healthy for the local economy, but it is also healthy for regional youth. The facility will allow children of all ages to participate in various activities designed to combat childhood obesity and complacency.
