Training in Ely

Pools, mats and the Ouse.

Ely sits on the highest ground in the Fens, and its training is spread across the city. Better's Hive Leisure Centre has a 25 m pool, gym, studios and a 3G pitch, and Kraken Submission Grappling trains at the same address. The Paradise Centre has two gyms, a sports hall and squash, and Hurley Fitness, Atrium Fitness and APG Fitness are the other gyms. Combat sports include Ely MMA, Fight Klub and taekwondo and karate clubs, and The Yoga Studio covers the quieter end.

The River Great Ouse runs past the city with a large marina, and Roswell Pits nature reserve is about a mile from the cathedral. Ely station is a junction, so a training partner from Cambridge or Peterborough is a short ride away.
