A sports hall is a type of a building that is designed for sports, e.g. for school sports, university or club sports. Typical sports halls often have a part with a roof in normal height, where the changing and washing rooms are located, and a part with a high roof, for ball sports and gymnastics.
leisure=sports_hall is used for objects used as sport halls, while building=sports_hall is a building constructed as a sports hall. For example objects constructed as sports hall and unused or used as warehouse, would be still building=sports_hall.
Sports halls can often be found on the terrain of schools or sports centres.
How to map
Draw an area along the building outline. In cases where it is impossible one may set a node instead. Tag it with building=sports_hall.
If the present usage of building is a sports hall, add leisure=sports_hall.
