K2 is a sports and leisure facility covering 57,194 m2 [1] in Pease Pottage Hill Crawley, UK.[2]

Development

The building belongs to Crawley Borough Council and was completed in 2005 for £25.76m.[1] It replaced Crawley leisure centre (built in 1964) the same year, which was sold for £32m in order to fund K2 (Crawley also received £5m through land swaps with the county council).[3] John Thraves; Crawley Council member is quoted as saying "I am very pleased to tell rate-payers of Crawley that it has not cost them a penny" in an interview with the BBC.[3] In January 2018 it received upgrades to its gym equipment worth £300,000.[4]

Management

In November 2018 it was taken over by SLM[5] operating as Everyone Active, along with the gym, sports hall and café in the Bewbush Centre and the 3G pitch and pavilion in Broadfield.[6]

List of facilities

2018 Snooker Open

K2 hosted the English Open snooker tournament in October 2018.[10] On the first day of the open, current title holder, Ronnie O'Sullivan described the venue as "a bit of a hellhole", stating "all I can smell is urine."[11] World Snooker responded to these comments praising the centre in a statement that said that "K2 Crawley is an excellent venue with very good facilities."[12] World Champion Mark Williams concurred and is quoted as saying "We play in leisure centres all over the place and this is one of the better ones."[13] Mark Davis reached his first career ranking final after beating O'Sullivan in the semi-final.[14] Stuart Bingham went on to win the final, breaking down in tears following his victory, his first triumph since his return from a 6-month ban for betting on matches.[15]
