If you’re
feeling energetic during your stay in Nottingham you may
want to take advantage of the range of sports facilities
the city has to offer. From football pitches and squash
courts to swimming pools and jet skiing, there’s
bound to be a venue to suit your sporting taste. The city has a number of fitness centres including the Clifton Leisure Centre [map], which has four badminton courts and a leisure pool with water flumes, and the Harvey Hadden Leisure Centre [map], which has one of the largest sports halls in the region, along with an indoor 60m running track and a seven-lane outdoor track with infield area for long jump, pole-vaulting and discus. In addition to these there's Portland Leisure Centre [map], which has a 30m swimming pool, a children’s play area, gym and two squash courts. Keen swimmers should head to Beechdale Swimming Centre [map] in the Bilborough area of the city, which consists of a large 25 metre pool, a smaller teaching pool, a leisure pool with water slides and a diving tank. Nottingham is also home to the National Water Sports Centre [map], where you can have a go at canoeing, sailing and jet skiing, while the City of Nottingham Tennis Centre [map] is also nearby. There are also a number of cycle routes heading out from the city centre into the scenic countryside of Nottinghamshire, along with around 30 football and rugby pitches, which are available for hire. Add to this a number of amateur cricket pitches and the renowned Trent Bridge, where Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club play, along with an array of local golf courses, and you’ve got yourself a sports fan’s heaven. Of course, you could always just opt for the cheapest form of exercise, walking, because Nottingham city centre is a fairly compact with plenty of attractions to visit, so you can get fit while enjoying the views.
