Dursley Sports Centre

Coming Events! (temporarily out)

The Dursley Sports Centre is a dual use centre open during the evenings, week-ends and school holidays. When the Sports Centre is closed, all bookings and enquiries are dealt with by Dursley Pool from noon onwards.

You will find everything you need at the Sports Centre to keep you in trim and it won't cost you a packet. You don't have to pay top price membership fees or be super fir to join in.

We can offer you many ways to get fit and stay fit, with our fully air-conditioned Fitness Suite and a variety of workout classes..... you will be spoilt for choice.

Our recently refurbished Fitness Suite contains a range of cardiovascular and weight-lifting equipment.

For safety reasons, we insist you undertake a full induction before setting out on your own. Once you receive your I.D. card, you can choose to go it alone, or work out when our staff are on hand to give help and advice.

Staffed sessions in the fitness suite are:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and Saturday mornings. Check at the centre for times.

There is no annual fee to the venue.
We operate a 'pay as you play' system to give everyone the chance to become a regular customer. Pick up our latest leaflet for full information

We call this session 220. The idea behind this is that 220 minus your age is your maximum heart rate. By taking part in this class you will certainly increase your heart rate and on occasions some of you will come somewhere near your maximum.

This class is not for the complete beginner. We recommend that anyone taking part in this session for the first time speaks to the instructor beforehand.

The Thursday class is more traditional and suitable for everyone - including the complete beginner. During this session you are able to work out as hard or as gently as you like. If you need to take a break after each exercise, feel free to do so.

As with every form of exercise, if you are a complete beginner, speak to our instructor beforehand. He will show you how to perform the exercises correctly and therefore minimise the risk of injury.

We strongly recommend that anyone with a medical condition, or recovering from illness or injury consult with their doctor or physiotherapist before taking part in this class.

Monday        6.30. p.m. to 7.30 p.m.
Thursday     6.30. p.m. to 7.30 p.m.
Sunday        11.00 a.m. to 12 noon (aerobic circuit)

All our aerobics classes are suitable for all ages and abilities (participants must be aged 14 or over). Whether male or female, experienced or novice, the classes will provide an all round workout.

Each class contains a mixture of cardiovascular, muscle toning, strength, stamina and flexibility exercises, combining both high and low impact exercises, all to music.

The aerobic circuit class on Sunday is an aerobic class with a difference..... Come along to find out more.

All our instructors are YMCA and RSA qualified and we comply with all PPL and PRS licensing requirements. All licence fees are paid by Dursley Pool - we do not pass on this cost to the customer. Our prices have not dramatically increased since the licensing requirements were introduced.

We strongly recommend that anyone with a medical condition or recovering from illness or injury, consult with their doctor or physiotherapist before taking part in this class.

Always tell out instructor if you have a medical condition, or are recovering from illness or injury, or if you are pregnant.

Courts are available for hire throughout the week from 6.30 p.m. most days and at week-ends. Rackets and shuttlecocks are available for hire.

If squash or racketball is your game, then we have two courts for you to choose from. Balls can be purchased at reception and rackets are available for hire with a small deposit.

Full size or half court available for hire. Week-end availability is normally good.

Full size indoor court available for hire at varying times throughout the week. The hirer may need to assist with setting up the courts. Posts are provided but the hirer must provide their own ball.

This is available throughout the week for tennis during the summer season and for other sports, such as netball, and football, during the winter months.
