Sports center of Sorbiers in Tannay

The Sorbiers Sports Center, in Tannay, is a very comprehensive free-access multisport hub: soccer, 3×3 basketball, skatepark, climbing, table tennis, giant chess, and playground. Free of charge, ideal when everyone wants their own activity.

A sports center where everyone finds their field

Adjacent to the École des Sorbiers in Tannay, this sports center is undoubtedly one of the most complete outdoor spaces in Terre Sainte. Families come here because there is truly something for everyone: athletes kick the ball, skaters take over the skatepark, younger kids climb and play, and parents can sit down for a game of chess or pétanque. Everything is freely accessible and free of charge, making it a reliable choice for an afternoon or a Wednesday without a specific plan.

What your children will discover

The range of activities is broad: football field, basketball hoop for 3×3, skatepark, climbing walls, ping-pong tables, pétanque game, chess and checkers tables, "Box-up" space, and a playground for the little ones. This diversity is the great asset of the place: a 4-year-old and a 15-year-old can come together and each find something to enjoy, without getting bored or bothering each other.

What you can do there and the atmosphere on site

The atmosphere is that of a lively and friendly neighborhood place. Children move from one activity to another according to their desires: a bit of climbing, a game of ping-pong, a turn at the skatepark. Siblings of different ages easily meet there, and parents appreciate being able to keep an eye on several areas from the same spot. It’s a place where you willingly stay longer than expected.

Why we recommend it

Few free spaces concentrate so many activities in one location. This is precisely what makes the Sorbiers strong: you come without a specific plan and leave with happy and tired children. For large families or siblings with different interests, it’s an ideal solution, just a stone's throw from home and without spending a dime.

In two words

The most complete multisport hub in Terre Sainte, free and open access, where every child finds their activity.
