Jersey's new £8 million sports facility, Oakfield, has been officially opened by Chief Minister Lyndon Farnham.
Top politicians took to the gymnastics hall, bouncing and balancing on the equipment whilst showing off the new build.
It comprises a 2,659m² multi-use sports hall, a martial arts dojo, a 3G football pitch and a gymnastics hall, along with an Active gym and dance studio.
The Infrastructure and Environment department says it has been designed to be suitable for a range of sports, including martial arts, netball, badminton, basketball, volleyball, tennis and indoor cricket .
However, Oakfield has not come without controversy.
The initial budget was projected to be £3 million in 2022, with completion estimated for May 2023.
Regent Gymnastics Club has wanted to remain at Fort Regent, using equipment it was gifted from the Paris 2024 Olympics, and in June, Jersey's netballers protested about a lack of suitable court time at Oakfield.
Jersey Sport CEO David Kennedy says sport is taken for granted in Jersey.
"We need to recognise that for all that hard work that goes in every day, it's actually an investment here in our community because everybody that takes part in sport and physical activity will ultimately be healthier, fitter, stronger, and overall be a far greater asset to us as an island, so it's important we recognise that.
"We now have the research that shows that for every £1 invested in the delivery of sport and physical activity, the economy benefits from £4.
"I feel like there's an argument for strategic investment."
Treasury Minister Elaine Millar, balancing on a beam.
Talking about the hall itself, Mr Kennedy says it blew him away when he first saw it.
"Just by the sheer size and scale of it, when you're actually inside it and all, I could think about was the hundreds of people of all ages and abilities that will be able to use this facility in the coming years.
"It's something Jersey has been waiting on.
"We know that the sporting community will maximise it and we know everyone will benefit from it."
