Hello, I just wanted to ask whether there is any plans of building squash courts in the new centre. There is a lack of them in this area currently and people have to travel far if they have an interest in playing and it is often hard to get a booking as its so popular.
Anita asked over 2 years agoHi,
Unfortunately squash courts are not included in our design. The new centre will include an outdoor 50m pool, indoor 25m pool, indoor water play space, learn to swim pool, warm water program pool, spa and steam room, gym, creche, group fitness and cafe. Check out the document library to see the floor plans.

Apologies for the delayed response. We have recently experienced technical difficulties with our webpage.
