Junior Gym

Using our gyms as a Junior.

Our gyms in Ards, Comber and Portaferry provide safe, supervised opportunities for young people aged 11 to 15 years to enjoy their fitness.

Whether training for a sports team or specific challenge, advised to tackle weight for health reasons or simply enjoy exercising, we have something at all our gyms to suit.

The earlier you start to make fitness a habit and something natural to do, the better. We believe in starting on the road to wellbeing early.

Juniors using the gym

  • Juniors must be aged 11 to 15 years old and have a Fitness and Spa, Fitness or Child add on membership with us to use our gyms.
  • All new members must have an induction before using the gym during which an adult must be present.
  • Junior members can use the gym at any time during opening hours when accompanied by an adult, 18 years or over, who is also a fitness member. At Portaferry juniors may use the gym without an accompanying adult.
  • Junior members who cannot be accompanied by an adult fitness member must use the gym at Junior Friendly Gym session times.
    During these sessions our instructors will be on hand to give guidance and advice and set special workouts for juniors to follow if they wish.
