Gym refurbishment and new equipment
Sport Sheffield are investing in new equipment alongside some reconfiguration to create a new and improved facility for its members.
Latest Updates
Update Friday 16 June: We've been busy finalising arrangements and we're pleased to share the news that we are partnering with Technogym as the official supplier for this project. A full list of the brand new Technogym equipment can be found here.
During this refurbishment period, cardio equipment such as treadmills, rowing machines and bikes will move to Studio 1 - located in the Sports Hall building.
Free weights and pin-loaded equipment will move to the Strength and Conditioning Suite and the former Matrix Studio - located in the Main Goodwin building.
Project summary
The refurbishment project, due to start in early July will include the replacement of gym equipment, light decoration of the walls and a revised layout for the benefit of its users.
There will also be a lot of "behind the scenes" work undertaken which includes improvements in the areas of data, lighting, and the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system.
The existing equipment will be relocated to other rooms at Sport Sheffield to enable members to continue to workout whilst the refurbishment is taking place.
Work is currently scheduled for completion in October 2023, although any opportunity to speed up the project will be taken as Sport Sheffield would love to be able to open the doors on the new gym area for when the new term starts in September.
Any updates to the project will be added to this page so please check back regularly for the latest project information.
