Training in Summertown

A council pool, two health clubs and plenty of studios.

North of St Giles, Summertown is a square mile of North Oxford built around the Banbury Road and South Parade. Its anchor is Ferry Leisure Centre, the council's site, with a 25 m pool, an 11 m teaching pool, a gym of more than 90 stations and two squash courts. Nuffield Health's Oxfordshire Health & Racquets Club is the other big name, and the studios cover barre, Pilates and yoga.

Martial arts schools and a swim school take a lot of the younger crowd, and Norham Gardens and the Alexandra Park courts give you tennis. If you'd rather not swim or play alone, a regular partner for Ferry's lanes or a weekly doubles game is the easiest way to keep it going.
