You will be shown around a great 21st century sports facility by friendly volunteers (we are all volunteers!), have a full explanation of what we do and what  is on offer to members, have all your questions answered openly and honestly, be able to discuss your needs and expectations and given a clear indication of how they can be met.  In the unlikely event of the Club  not providing what you seek you will be given clear and current guidance on alternatives and options.


You will not be subject to sales patter and pressure to join.

Naturally we hope you will join us but that obviously remains entirely your choice!
