Figure 1.--. 

Many prep schools now have sports halls. They are used during the day for the PE program. It is particularly useful in a country where it can rain quite a bit because it provides a facility than can be used regardless of the whether. It also provides facilities for a range of sports that are not easy to set up outside. This is especially true of gymnastics. Thus the sports hall can be used on rainy days and on during the Winter. The Sports Hall can also be used for a club activity. The Sports Hall can also be used for other part of the program such as the school play, depending on the other available facilities. Another popular use of the Sports Hall is for games in the evening. Much of the school year is during the Fall and Winter when it can get dark very early. Thus outside games are not possible. The Sports Hall provide facilities for a wide range of games in the evening.
