The 8,000 square metre facility will have space for four basketball courts, a gym and café, along with corporate facilities and office space.
It has the backing of Badminton Ireland, Irish Squash and Volleyball Ireland, who've expressed an interest in using the new state-of-the-art amenity.
It is expected work on the new multi-sport arena will get underway in 2025, taking 18 months to complete.
