Sports Hall
Get Moving!
Put your athletic prowess to the test and understand the physical and mental demands it takes to become a great athlete. Inside the Sports Hall, you’ll discover that every field, court, track and gym is a hands-on science lab. Get into the action by throwing a football, shooting a hockey puck, turning cartwheels and more — while a high-speed camera captures it all for you to analyze when you’re done.
Test Your Speed
