    Lots of classes to choose from, some good and some not so good teachers…read more Changing rooms are average with them taking 5 months to replace a light bulb in the toilets. The exercise studio is a disgrace. Flooding damaged the ceiling and the floor, classes were cancelled so they could repair the floor but they didn't and when they cancelled them for a second time they only replaced parts of the floor and left large damaged areas unrepaired. Cheap and cheerful but don't expect anyone to return your calls or answer emails and staff are generally kept in the dark so unable to help much. The booking app is abysmal, regularly doesn't work, was supposedly updated and now doesn't work again. You can't book by phone as they don't answer. Booking via the website is ok if you know what class you want to book, if it then it's a nightmare.

    I absolutely love the gym here. It has all the necessary equipment and more, even during busy times…read morethere are always machines free. It did get a bit annoying in January when the post Christmas 'new year new you' crowd were in, but thankfully it's returned to normal now. I haven't used the swimming pool or attended any classes here (I've tried to book on to some classes but they always seem to be full!), but I've heard good things.

    I used to play quite a bit of tennis when I was younger but then I got older. A while back I…read moredecided that maybe I'd quite like to take it up again but on a smaller court, where I could have a few drinks either before or after and not be completely and utterly destroyed for days. Things had got bad with the fitness and the tennis. So that's when I decided that badminton might be the answer. After considering the options in the local area I dragged a friend down to one of their open sessions on a Sunday evening. It's £10 for about two hours and if you're new you get lessons in with that. Not cheap really but it's good to see if you like it enough to continue. After that you can either join or try table tennis, an even smaller court. I didn't end up continuing the badminton for very long but actually did really enjoy it here. It's an ultra friendly club, very neighbourhoodly, a little bit suburban and most members are either older or very young. Good indoor racquet sport options though for cold weather adverse. Gym too.

    A brief study of previous clubs I've been to…read more Nearly all of the badminton clubs I've had the pleasure of gracing tend to subscribe to various extremes. These can be applied to the temperaments of the people, the quality of the play, the poise and precision of post-play banter, height, width and length of the hall, and the quantity of shuttle cocks. Because without enough shuttle cocks we might as well be swatting flies as a form of sweaty recreation. I recall two clubs in particular in Maidstone in Kent. I can't remember what they're called. I forgot them successfully. The first one interested me, because even the worst of players acted in a godlike manner. I left this club. The second abomination had a hall so small, and a ceiling so low that I'm convinced the dwarfs stranded outside wanted their wedding reception back. Why the Wimbledon Racquet & Fitness Centre is a 'keeper' in my view? Beyond expectations frankly. Lockers (which require only £1 deposit) and have enough room to keep all you groceries, a child of average height, a jacket, a brief case, and anything else associated with a burdensome modern lifestyle. The halls (playing space) is huge, immensely well kept and there is ample space allocated for those who wish to watch including (can you believe) more locker space near the court. But never fear, there aren't endless opportunities for the humble and nimble to spectate gormlessly at the sidelines. Whatever skill level you happen to be; whatever your racquet wielding disposition; you'll get regular on-court action. And advice to improve your game. The opportunities for improving your technique are constant, and the trainer's timekeeping sharp. For example on Sundays from 5 to 7pm the Beginners & Improvers Session takes place. This is £6 to members and £12 to non-members. The coaching sessions and playing sessions mix in perfectly. Either you can train (the coaching is excellent) or play mixed (or non-mixed) doubles games. There is also the Open Session on Friday which cost me, as a non-member, £12.50. But that's for over three hours of solid badminton and half time snacks (often delicious Chelsea Buns, doughnuts and Apple Turnovers). And hot tea. This is all thrown in to the price. If you haven't got a racquet they always have a good quality piece of equipment to hand - no extra charge or renting fee etc. Excellent stock of badminton goods to buy. I purchased my court shoes from the club for roughly 30 quid (excellent quality - superb in usage). Sublime cushioning. They're good. There are gym facilities. Full membership includes unlimited use of a fully equipped air-conditioned gym, unlimited use of saunas and changing-room facilities, and a free gym induction/training programme. Massive bonus: they're not (I repeat not) cliquey like a great many clubs. Anyhow I could go on and on. And you (doubtless) want your evening to yourself. I recommend the place.

    The David weir centre is great gym to go to if you are on a budget, it's not like your David lloyds…read moreor virgin gyms where equipment is being updated every 6 months, however they do have suffice workout equipment and adequate room for stretching and putting exercise steps/balls out! As this is more than a gym because there are a lot of athletics that train here there is a running track, and high jump inside the sports hall and outside, a additional separate weights room and a long jump area inside the centre, there is a dance studio upstairs where most of their exercise classes are held which ranges from body pump to Zumba to yoga! There's a class for everyone at what ever exercise level you are! The gym staff are very helpful! If there was an award for the top members of staff, this would go to Craig! He introduces himself to new members , he creates exercise plans for you and advises best ways to take your training further, and he will follow up with you to see if you need any additional help or just additional motivation! The gym has a lot if potential of updating the changing rooms and updating the air con machine but as I said before it does have everything you need to have a good training session. There is also a cafe upstairs and a crèche / kids playing area, and they do cater for birthday parties !

It also has an indoor runnin track, with indoor long jump and high jump facilities. There is a exercise room with machines and weight and a seperate free weights room. They also have toddler time full of under 5 toys and apparatus aswell as a play barn, great for birthday parties with food provided by the cafe upstairs or you can bring your own.
