The new centre includes a gym, virtual bike studio, a 25-meter pool and learning pool with moveable floor, splash pad, dance studios, eight-court sports hall, squash courts, adventure play, Clip and Climb™ and café.

Test Valley Borough Council were keen to retain sports facilities during construction of the new centre, therefore, the project was carried out in phases: after partial demolition, construction of the new centre took place, followed by demolition of the remainder of the building and completion of the landscaping works. As an operator of leisure clubs in The Netherlands, for refurbishments and extensions we know to focus on minimising disruption to operational matters. Operating results and long term memberships benefit from this approach, as users can continue their training programmes at their own club.
