Training in Swadlincote

A climbing wall, a pool and plenty of fight gyms.

Swadlincote's centre of gravity is Green Bank Leisure Centre on Civic Way: a 25 m five-lane pool, a 16-station climbing wall, a six-court sports hall, a gym and a cycle studio. Snap Fitness and Anytime Fitness bring chain gyms to town, alongside independents such as Shredz Fitness Centre, Martial Sports Gym and Zeus Health & Fitness. Combat sport runs deep, with Crown Kickboxing, Fight Station, two judo clubs and Royal Oak Boxing Club.

The town grew on coal and clay and now sits in the National Forest. Swadlincote Woodlands has two forest trails over 80 acres, and Maurice Lea Memorial Park, Eureka Park and Cadley Park all hold Green Flag status. A partner on the climbing wall or the trails turns a plan into a habit.
