About Us
Our Story
The Metro Rec Plex emerged from a vision to create more than just a sports facility. We recognized the desperate need for ice rinks and competitive swimming lanes in the region, though we wanted to build something transformative—a comprehensive community center where active lifestyles thrive.
World-Class Facilities
Located at the corner of Scott Troy Road and Hwy 50 in O’Fallon, IL, our state-of-the-art complex features:
- Two NHL-sized ice rinks hosting competitive and recreational programs
- An aquatic center with a 10-lane championship pool and separate recreational pool
- The Atlantis Strength and Weight Center with cutting-edge equipment
- An elevated walking track and comprehensive cardio center
- Dynamic group fitness studios with diverse class offerings
- Professional personal training services
- Convenient childcare services for member families
Family-Centered Design
We designed the Metro Rec Plex with busy families in mind. Parents can drop children at swimming or skating lessons and enjoy their own workout—all under one roof. Our family-friendly environment creates a true one-stop destination for active households.
Proud Athletic Partnerships
The Metro Rec Plex proudly serves as the official home to:
- McKendree University Hockey, Swimming and Diving, and Water Polo Teams
- Southern Illinois Ice Hawks Hockey Youth Club
- Seahawks competitive youth swim team
These partnerships enhance our community connection and bring top-tier athletics to O’Fallon.
