Just TRY Swimming
Northumbria students can join our 8 week Just TRY swimming programme for novices or complete beginners. Find out more here.
The 25m, 6 lane pool has been constructed with a movable floor which enables the depth to be changed between 1.25-2 metres making it the perfect environment for both beginners and advanced swimmers alike. Sport Central also hosts regional and national swimming galas. The swimming pool also uses UV filtration which enables us to minimise the quantity of chemicals used thereby improving everyone’s swimming experience.
Please also note,
