Training in Jesmond

Courts, a community pool and the dene.

Jesmond Pool & Gym has been run as a charity since it reopened in 1992, with a pool, two gyms and a poolside sauna and steam room. The Northumberland Club is a racket sports venue for squash, tennis, badminton, pickleball and table tennis, with a gym, and Tribal Cycle and Hotpod Yoga share its site. Add Andy McLean's Boxing Gym, reformer and mat Pilates, Jesmond Dene Real Tennis Club, Newcastle Cricket Club on Osborne Avenue and several dance schools.

Jesmond Dene is where people run, and its parkrun starts at 9am every Saturday. Many residents study at Newcastle or Northumbria University, so there are always new people looking for someone to swim, lift or rally with.
