Rizal Memorial Sports Complex
Rizal Memorial Sports Complex, Art Deco sports complex in Malate, Philippines
The Rizal Memorial Sports Complex features Olympic-sized swimming pools, tennis courts, baseball fields, and multiple indoor athletic facilities within its extensive grounds.
Built on former Manila Carnival Grounds in 1934, this facility hosted the Far Eastern Championship Games and underwent reconstruction in 1953 following World War II damage.
Baseball legends Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig made history at the complex's baseball stadium in December 1934 during an international exhibition game.
The Philippine Sports Commission manages this national sports center, which includes training facilities and accommodation for Philippines national athletes.
During the 2020 pandemic, this sports facility transformed into a medical quarantine center, supporting patients from Philippine General Hospital.
