Few subjects excite students more than the wide world of sports, and that world provides infinite connections to physics, technology and biology. From our view, the world of sports is a fantastic portal to scientific excitement. We’ve transformed that excitement into SportsWorks®, the world’s largest science-of-sport exhibition, offering dozens of interactive experiences designed to challenge the mind and body.

When you visit SportsWorks, you can...

  • Play a game of optical illusion mini-golf
  • Climb a 25-foot rock wall
  • Pitch a fastball
  • Design your own roller coaster... and ride it!

You'll also find out more about...

  • The ins and outs of Olympic judging
  • How ice skaters control their spinning
  • How to line up a trick shot in pool
  • The technology of sports safety equipment
  • The anatomy of your feet
Time required: 2 Hours| Students: $6 | Required Adults: free
