The University of Sussex Sports Centre may be less flashy than the nearby Falmer Sports Complex,…read morebut I tend to choose it more often. The fitness centre's selection of cardio equipment includes several of these really awesome cross-trainers...They're elliptical machines with optional ramps and give a pretty intense workout. The weight machines are set up more like a circuit training room - all neatly spaced out around the edges, instead of crammed in to each other like in the Sports Complex. And although the cardio machines don't have televisions built in, they do overlook one of the sports halls for some live entertainment. The Sports Centre runs several fitness groups and drop-in classes throughout the year, which are a good way to mix up your workout and prevent boredom. Also available on site: A Therapy Room that releases the relaxing scents of aromatherapy each time the door opens. I've yet to take advantage, but the prices seem quite reasonable. Perhaps that will be a Christmas gift to myself.

I've only attended two gyms throughout my life - including this one -, so I don't really have many…read morepoints of comparison to rely upon. That said, this is certainly the best gym I've ever been a member of. The price is very affordable - you can get a year's membership for just £130 -, the service is friendly and efficient, and the amount of gym equipment available for use is very good. Even during busy times there's plenty of different machines to use, including a plethora of running machines, cycles, rowing machines, and weights. Definitely comes highly recommended.

Coral Health & Fitness is probably the best value gym outside of Brighton centre. It has a large…read moregymnasium featuring an aerobic and floor exercise room with a separate machine and free-weight room so you don't feel intimidated by those whose main goal is to pose. For students membership is a mere £20 a month and for that you get on and off-peak access to the gym, beauty salon and bar. Other good deals can be had if you're a couple in which case monthly membership will cost you £23.75 each. Unfortunately neither membership includes access to squash courts (£4.50 off-peak/ £6 peak). You'll also have to pay a little extra to take part in any of the extra classes, which include boxercise, circuit training and spin classes. Both rooms of the gym are well stocked with every piece of apparatus you could ever need. The bonus for me is the small free-weights section that allows more space for machines, thus decreasing the amount of steroid-fuelled nutters you find in other gyms. Avoid evenings between 7-9pm, as these are the busiest times (I'd suggest visiting around midday during the week). If you need a few minutes to recuperate after your workout you can always chill out upstairs where the bar and kitchen will serve you everything from protein shakes to chilli con carne. All the staff are incredibly friendly and are often willing to give you free tips about how to improve your work out. It's no David Lloyd but for the money you can't complain.

With extra classes such as circuit training, boxercize, spin classes and salsa there's much more to…read moreCoral Fitness than a gymnasium and squash courts. With its own licensed bar you can stay and socialise for a while or indulge in a range of drinks and hot and cold food. For me it's the best value gym in Hove as it's impeccably maintained and well staffed. You'll never be far from a friendly trainer who'd be happy to give you some free exercise tips. The aerobic room is fully stocked with every machine you'd expect including treadmills, cross-trainers, bikes, spin machines and steppers, along with a matted area that comes with various exercise balls and crunch machines. Every wall is plastered with helpful diagrams and information so that you're never at a loss. The resistance room is separate to this and due to its bias toward machines as opposed to free-weights it isn't the kind of place frequented by many over-inflated steroid types. That said, the free-weight section is decent if a bit small and many of the machines are adaptable to varying needs. It's great for students as it's only £20 per month and if you're a couple you could get a joint membership for as little as £23.75. The squash courts cost £4.50 or £6 for off-peak and peak times respectively, however, the price isn't included in any membership package. Despite this I think it's the best value gym in the vicinity.

This football club certainly is an historical part of Hailsham, being established in 1885, when…read morethey were known as Hailsham Butchers. They switched to their current name in 1970. Their nickname The Stringers relates to the rope industry, which until recently was a strong part of Hailsham. Currently managed by Kenny McCreadie, Town are in the Sussex County League Division One. They're not in their best season, struggling in the bottom half of the table. They've not won a cup for a few years now. Now boosted by the return of star striker Danny Leach - who left first for Eastbourne Borough and then Eastbourne Town - Hailsham Town are hoping he'll help them creep back up the league. They play at The Beaconfield, which has no direct parking, so you have to leave your car on the roads around the industrial park. The entry fee is small as they're a non-professional club. Some of the viewing area is covered, but not much, and there are no seats around the field. There is a club house which is fully licensed and a snack bar sells hot and soft drinks, along with burgers and chips. The groundsmen are all friendly and helpful and die-hard fans will always happily help you out if you're not sure who scored. However, I would suggest keeping young children away from the managers' dug outs as there can be some fruity language drift out of there at times, but that's expected at most football grounds. Hailsham Town play Saturdays at 3pm and most mid-week games kick off at 7.45pm.

We were in the studio and it is a good room with mirrored walls and a sprung floor. I've also competed in a number of TKD tournaments in the main sports hall. The center offers the expected range of classes from keep-fit to more team based activities. The amenities are good with clean changing areas. There is also a full gym for exercise heads and a decent looking swimming pool. The staff are fairly helpful and identified by branded tee shirts. There is also a canteen that serves a basic range of foods including jacket potatoes and chips, beans and other fried snacks. Being a place of fitness, I find this a little bizarre, but I suppose they serve what the public want. Go figure! There are also glass backed squash courts and you can hire courts for badminton or basketball. All in all a pretty decent sports center for the town, but you will need a car or a bus ride to get there as it is located on the outskirts of Burgess Hill.
