South Reading Leisure Centre
South Reading Leisure Centre in the heart of South Reading brings fitness and swimming to the local community with a 25-metre pool and gym equipped with cardio machines and free weights. The pool offers lane swimming, aqua aerobics and lessons, while the sports hall covers badminton, basketball and five-a-side football. Join group cycle, HIIT, yoga, Pilates, boxfit or strength and conditioning classes. Our group cycle and aqua aerobics sessions are especially popular. Outside, there's a 3G pitch for football and floodlit tennis courts for tennis and pickleball. We partner with Reading Football Community Trust to support local football and keep the community moving.
