Training in Mansfield

A swimming town, with four public centres and the forest on its doorstep.

Mansfield is home to around 110,500 people (Census 2021), up 5.8% since 2011, with a median age of 41, unchanged in ten years. In Sport England's Active Lives survey for November 2024 to 2025, 60.5% of adults in the district did 150 minutes or more of activity a week, and 28.1% did less than 30 minutes.

Leisure Solutions Community Trust runs the council's four leisure centres. Water Meadows on Bath Street has a 25 m competition pool and a leisure pool with flumes, and the Rebecca Adlington Swimming Centre on Westdale Road, renamed in 2010 after the Mansfield-born swimmer who trained there as a child, has a 25 m pool. Oak Tree Leisure Centre has a gym and sports hall, and the Warsop Health Hub has a pool and gym. Around them sit a 24-hour JD Gyms, Bannatyne's club with a 20 m pool, CrossFit 17 and a jiu-jitsu academy in the town centre.

Whether you swim, lift or run, it's easier to keep going with the right company. Gymist is how you find them.
