The City of Brampton has officially broken ground on the Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome, a new facility offering access to high-quality sporting opportunities year-round for all ages, skill levels and abilities.
Located on the grounds of the Cassie Campbell Community Centre, this transformative project represents an investment of more than $19 million in active living, youth engagement and inclusive recreation. The new air-supported dome will cover a new full-size turf field hockey field. A new straight running track with long and triple jump sand pits, along with cricket and baseball batting cages, will also be housed within the dome for year-round accessibility. A comfort station with change rooms and washrooms will be added as part of the dome project. The facility is anticipated to be complete in early 2026.
“The Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome represents another important step in our ongoing commitment to providing year-round, high-quality recreation facilities for residents. With a strong community of passionate field hockey enthusiasts in Brampton, we are proud to support the growth of this sport locally. We remain focused on winterizing amenities in every corner of our city so that all residents can enjoy the benefits of recreation, no matter the season. Building upon projects such as the Earnscliffe Park Cricket Facility and the Rosalea Park Tennis Facility, we are ensuring that Brampton remains a leader in sport and community wellness,” said Patrick Brown, Mayor, City of Brampton.
The Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome builds upon the legacy of the Cassie Campbell Community Centre, named after Brampton-born Olympian Cassie Campbell-Pascall. Since opening in 2008, the centre has been a hub for local athletes and families. The existing field and future new field and dome will welcome youth, local and professional field hockey and sports events, providing a platform for athletes of all levels to develop their skills and build community connections.
“The Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome will provide a safe, welcoming space for youth, families and athletes to come together, share their love of sport, and build lasting memories. This project exemplifies our commitment to community engagement, promoting healthy and active lifestyles and supporting the dreams of local athletes at every level. A strong focus on health and activity is at the heart of everything we do, ensuring Brampton is a place where residents of all ages can thrive,” said Rowena Santos, Regional Councillor, Wards 1 and 5; Chair, Community Services Section, City of Brampton.
The Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome is part of Brampton’s broader commitment to winterizing recreation amenities to improve the availability of sports year-round. This includes the new Earnscliffe Park Cricket Facility, which will offer a winterized space for cricket enthusiasts once complete and the recently opened Rosalea Park Tennis Facility, connecting more youth to the sport. Together, these projects strengthen Brampton’s position as a city dedicated to enhancing recreation and keeping residents active throughout the year.
“This dome is a fantastic addition to Brampton’s growing network of winterized recreation spaces, right here in our community. This investment underscores Brampton’s dedication to building vibrant, inclusive communities where every resident has access to safe, modern and welcoming sports facilities. I know from speaking with residents that this project is a welcome investment that meets the needs of our community. I am excited to see the Cassie Campbell Field Hockey Multisport Training Dome become a cornerstone of our community’s recreational life for years to come,” said Navjit Kaur Brar, Regional Councillor, Wards 2 and 6; Vice Chair, Community Services Section, City of Brampton.
