SUMMARY
=======
The National Sports Centre at Crystal Palace in south London, England is a large sports centre and athletics stadium. It was opened in 1964 in Crystal Palace Park, close to the site of the former Crystal Palace Exhibition building which had been destroyed by fire in 1936, and is on the same site as the former FA Cup Final venue which was used here between 1895 and 1914.
It was one of the five National Sports Centres, run on behalf of Sport England, but responsibility was transferred to the London Development Agency (now GLA Land and Property) and is managed by Greenwich Leisure Limited, under their Better brand logo.
The sports centre building was designed by the LCC Architects Department under Sir Leslie Martin between 1953–54 and is a Grade II* listed building. It has a particularly interesting interior: there is a central concourse with a complex and delicate exposed concrete frame supporting the roof, which has a folded teak lining, and to one side a series of pools, including a 50m competition pool, and a diving pool with a dramatic reinforced concrete diving platform, and to the other side a smaller sports arena.
The athletics stadium has a capacity of 15,500, which can be increased to 24,000 with temporary seating. It hosts international athletics meetings.

Stars Banned From Other Countries
Honestly, you'd think that international travel would be easy if you were rich and famous. But celebrity status isn't enough to get you into some places, and that goes doubly if you've got a knack for stoking up controversy. Here are a few of the stars who are banned from traveling to other countries.
By now, you're bound to know that Chris Brown launched a brutal assault on his then-girlfriend Rihanna just before the Grammys in February 2009. What you may not know was that, following that horrifying incident, Brown was denied entry into the United Kingdom. BBC News reported in 2010 that the Don't Wake Me Up singer was refused permission for a visa because he had been found to be guilty of a serious criminal offense. Brown had been slated to perform a series of tour dates in the U.K., with stops including Glasgow, London, and Manchester. In September 2015, it was reported that Brown had also been denied entry to Australia and New Zealand. At the time, Brown tweeted:
I would be more than grateful to come to Australia to raise awareness on domestic violence. [I'm] not the pink elephant in the room anymore...My life mistakes should be a wake up call for everyone. Showing the world that mistakes don't define you.
