About Farnham Sports Centre
Farnham Sports Centre was first established in 1981. With two swimming pools, sports hall, squash courts, dance studio, crèche and a fitness suite (opened 4th March) it has become a firm favourite with residents in and around the Farnham area.

The dance studio, a modern, air conditioned room allocated solely for aerobics. Should customers choose to take out a Kinetika membership, the package includes unlimited aerobics classes.

For those customers who find gyms rather daunting and prefer the more ‘traditional’ ways to get fit, the centre has a large sports hall which accommodates badminton, short tennis, football, trampolining and much more. In addition the sports hall plays host to the many children’s activities and courses that are on offer in the school holidays.

Farnham Sports Centre operates on a casual ‘pay as you play’ basis as well as offering single, joint and family membership packages. These are a popular option, especially with regular users as they represent excellent value for money and customers can enjoy unlimited use of many of the facilities.

Further details of all activities on offer can be obtained by calling the sports centre on 01252 723208.
