“Two basketball courts? You’re kidding, right?” a young boy exclaimed, gazing at the Gymnase des Neuveries. The Gymnase des Neuveries stood before them, a beacon of activity and community spirit in Gif-sur-Yvette. This modern sports facility boasted an impressive array of equipment and amenities. Within its walls, the Gymnase des Neuveries housed a spacious multi-sports hall, perfect for basketball, volleyball, and even tennis. This impressive space, spanning 682 square meters, featured a synthetic playing surface, ensuring optimal playing conditions. A testament to its commitment to inclusivity, the Gymnase des Neuveries provided convenient access for people with disabilities.
