Clarington is moving forward with work on the South Bowmanville Recreation Centre, as approved by Council in the 2022 Budget. This new recreation centre will be a state-of-the-art facility where residents can enjoy various recreational activities, offering an important space for the community. The South Bowmanville Recreation Centre is Clarington's largest new capital investment that will be paid by debenture and partly through development charges collected through new growth. This page will outline the progress of the project and include any updates on this exciting new facility.
We will be building a multi-component facility that will include:
The new facility will incorporate the existing Bowmanville Indoor Soccer building within the overall design.

Clarington also held community consultation sessions in 2019, confirming the site as the optimal choice. In 2021, Council approved Clarington Fields as the location for the South Bowmanville Recreation Centre.
Clarington's staff team is meeting regularly to create plans and timelines for this large construction project. An RFP has been issued to hire a Project Management Firm with experience in handling a project of this scope and size.
