Facility Case Study THE TIM BRABANTS ELITE TRAINING CENTRE ETON COLLEGE, DORNEY LAKE Status: Completed 2015 Client: British Canoeing Value: £750,000 Dorney Lake is British Canoeing’s main on-water training venue and was a competition venue for the London 2012 Olympic Games. However, in contrast to the excellent water conditions, the venue lacked suitable indoor support accommodation - Olympic medallists were dependent on an old, leaky shipping container for changing and meeting space. The new state-of-the-art facility builds on the success of Main corridor London 2012 and provides paddlers with an improved daily training environment to support preparation for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, Tokyo 2020 and beyond. It was constructed using modular, off-site construction techniques. This overcame challenges posed by the relatively remote location within a flood plain area that also suffers from low water and gas pressures. Sport England worked in conjunction with British Canoeing and UK Sport to design and deliver a World Class, purpose Male athletes changing space built facility, embracing Sport England’s Design Guidance.
