The St. James, a massive, gleaming sports complex in Springfield, opened its doors this weekend and gave sports enthusiasts their first look at the much-anticipated campus. The 20-acre indoor health and wellness center includes FIFA regulation-sized turf fields, a 50-meter Olympic-sized swimming pool (plus an adjacent indoor water park), batting cages, a gymnastics center, climbing and bouldering wall, basketball courts, a state-of-the-art health center and—when you’ve run out of energy from all that sporting—a spa. We headed over this weekend to get a look at the brand new building. Check out some of the spaces in our gallery—then lace up your sneakers (or put on your bathing suit or lace up your skates, you get the idea) and head over. // thestjames.com
