Gyms in Woolverstone

A riverside village on the Orwell's south bank, where training mostly means boats: a yacht club with its own marina and RYA courses, and Pin Mill's sailing club.

Training in Woolverstone

Boats, horses and a riverbank.

There's no gym in Woolverstone; the water is the draw. Royal Harwich Yacht Club, founded in 1843, has had its own marina here since pontoons were added in 1973, runs RYA courses and supports The Woolverstone Project, which gives people with disabilities the chance to sail. Pin Mill Sailing Club is close by, Hill Farm Equestrian Centre teaches riding, and Ridgeway Swim and Shotley Peninsula Swimming Club cover the pool.

Sailing is a team sport, so a crew mate is worth finding before the season starts. Holbrook Hornets Football Club is on the list too, and for a gym you'll be heading towards Ipswich.
