Facilities

We've transformed sport and physical activity at the University...

We've been expanding and investing heavily in sports facilities over the past few years, so whatever you're into - whether it's swimming, ultimate Frisbee, rugby, or climbing - you should find what you're looking for here.

On campus we have three sporting venues, the most recent of which is The Edge. Opened in May 2010, this £12.2m state-of-the-art swimming pool and fitness centre is home to:

• Leeds' largest indoor sports halls with performance floors and lighting
• a  25m, 8-lane swimming pool with moveable floor
• the largest fitness suite of any UK university with state-of-the-art equipment
• 3 dedicated class studios - over 125 classes per week
• a performance strength and conditioning facility
• squash courts
• a climbing wall
• a whole range of additional facilities for you to enjoy 52 weeks of the year

You can even enjoy a latte at our own Starbucks cafe after a hard session in the gym!

Just three miles off-campus, the Weetwood playing fields has new and refurbished, high quality pitches for a variety of sports, plus changing rooms and even BBQs. And further a field, the outdoor centres in the Dales and the Lake District are great if you want to get a group together and enjoy the great outdoors.
