Shankill Leisure Centre
Shankill Leisure Centre on Shankill Road brings fitness and fun to the local community with facilities for all ages. Our open-plan gym has cardio machines, free weights and strength equipment, while the leisure pool features a wave machine that makes swimming sessions extra enjoyable. After your workout, relax in the sauna and steam room, included with every membership. The eight-court sports hall hosts badminton, basketball, five-a-side football, squash and pickleball, with all racquet equipment provided free when you play. Classes include yoga, tai chi and strength conditioning, plus there are women-only sessions available. We work with local schools, the Northern Irish Football Association and Sure Start to keep our community active and engaged.
