Opening in the early 80s, the Dick McTaggart Centre was the go-to place for locals interested in a game of fives with their pals or for sporting tournaments. It was the perfect way to celebrate one of Dundee’s sporting legends, Dick McTaggart. The boxer famously won 610 out of 634 amateur contests and remains the only Scottish boxer to win Olympic gold to date cementing his place as one of the finest amateur boxers Britain has ever produced. By the late 90s though the venue was becoming increasingly tired and run down but following a near £2 million Dundee City Council project, the former general sports facility was completely transformed into a new regional gymnastics training centre.
