Northern College breaks ground on sports dome

Northern College broke ground on a sports dome in Timmins last week. Once complete, the 130,000 square-foot building will be open to the public and contain facilities for a variety of sports and fitness activities including a full-size soccer field, basketball courts, and a fitness area. “We know that our role as a regional partner is to help foster the kind of communities that people want to visit, to study in, and to build a life for themselves,” said Northern College President Mitch Dumas. Funding for the dome has been provided by the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund, the City of Timmins, and Caise Alliance. Northern College expects the facility to be fully open in late 2026 to early 2027.
