Exciting Changes Coming to the Athletics Centre!
We are thrilled to announce some exciting new changes coming to the Trent Athletics Centre! As part of our ongoing commitment to providing the best sport and fitness experience, we will be undertaking a significant redesign of our Fitness Centre.
To facilitate these improvements, the Fitness Centre will be closed beginning Tuesday, February 18 and reopening Saturday, February 22. Please note that during this time our fitness studios will be open and fitness classes will operate as normal. The Allan Marshall Pool, gymnasium and squash courts will also remain open.
