Future Developments

The Council is well on track to create its new generation of indoor sports centres. It will be providing new leisure centres in Rotherham Town Centre (the former St Ann’s car park), Maltby (site of existing Civic Offices), Aston (Aughton Road frontage of Aston Comprehensive School), and Wath upon Dearne (Festival Road frontage of Wath Comprehensive School).

The St Ann’s Leisure Centre will include leisure water, a flume, teaching pool and 6-lane main pool, indoor climbing tower, sports hall, squash courts and fitness suite. Maltby Leisure Centre will include a 6-lane competition pool, separate diving/teaching pool, four-court sports hall and fitness suite. It will also offer direct indoor access to a brand-new Customer Service Centre incorporating Council Offices and Health Centre.

Aston Leisure Centre will include a five-lane pool, separate teaching pool, four-court sports hall and fitness suite. Wath Leisure Centre will include a five-lane pool, separate teaching pool and fitness suite; it will be located next to the existing school sports centre.

The leisure centres at St Ann’s, Wath and Aston are expected to be open by the autumn of 2008, with Maltby Leisure Centre following on in the autumn of 2009. Existing swimming pools and Herringthorpe Leisure Centre will remain open until replacement facilities are available, at which point they will close. The new facilities will be managed and maintained by DC Leisure Management Ltd on behalf of the Council for a 32-year contract period.
