Lisnasharragh Leisure Centre

Gym has decent equipment but not enough of it. For such a large space I have yet to go and get a full workout. Not many benches, not enough dumbbells, a single ez bar and too few Olympic bars. There are 4 squat racks in the middle but only enough hooks and safety bars to use 2. There are never staff on the gym floor, so during the junior gym (1500-1730 avoid like the plague) kids are using free weights unsupervised and arsing about and hogging machines, quite often they are using things dangerously and no one is available to guide them or make them stop. I have seen what looked like an 11 year old trying to bench press and his mate laughing as he nearly died. No one wipes down their machines and no one can put their weights back or in the right places. Some staff telling people to do this would be great. Like they do in Better Gym Belfast.

Really lovely and helpful staff on reception and in the gym. The gym is always spotless and well maintained. A bit more air con and music on would be nice, but that’s just being picky :)

Good staff on reception. The changing area is clean. A few of the doors have the locks broken off them though and haven’t been replaced but lockers and the rest of the area is good. Good hall for badminton and table tennis and again the staff have been great setting up. The pool is good when they have the separate swimming lanes set up for people actually wanting to swim lengths which saves everyone getting in the way. They should’ve put a few slides in, but can’t be helped now. Decent sized pool and clean 👍

Great place , wonderful staff, very nice and polite, always happy to help . Didn't like the number of people around the pool watching their kids swim .... . All the dirt from their shoes goes to the water. I found it very hard coming out of the pool as people won't move to let you go ...... husband and wife and their baby on the prom..... to watch their kid swim... . In the meantime, there is a sitting area ..... I spoke to the manager about the issue and been told that there is no rule for that ......

Poor/No information on when majority of the pool is closed for private swimming training/lessons - this is not ‘Swim for All’. Not ‘all’ can swim there when it is closed to the general ‘all’. You can turn up and the ‘all’ are rammed into half the pool while a couple of kids get half the main pool and the entire diving pool. Waste of time. If you work full time you have a very narrow window post 8pm if you want a bit of organisation. Better could provide more information so that your paying customers can plan and work around the schedule of closures/restrictions. There are already tight booking requirements and time slots to adhere to.
