SPORTSCO recently celebrated its 30th year as a Sports and Leisure complex. In recent years the Irish leisure industry has become increasingly competitive and offering state of the art facilities at competitive prices.
In order to address this trend, SPORTSCO took the decision in 2006 to redevelop the facilities at Ringsend in order to retain its position as one of the top five leisure centres in the country.
Membership is more attractive than ever, with substantial discounts available to members in various facilities, including the Golf Lounge and Day Spa.
The development at SPORTSCO was completed on schedule in January 2009.
New facilities include;
* New reception and entrance lobby
* Gym doubled in size to 6,200 sq. ft including over 70 pieces of state of the art equipment, separate cardiovascular area, weights area, spinning studio and new aerobic studio.
* Refurbished swimming pool/pool plant/ sports hall/ leisure suite/ squash courts
* State of the art Changing Village incorporating adult only, family change, group change and soccer changing facilities, all with underfloor heating and vanity areas.
* CHP and energy management systems.
* Four new competition standard all-weather tennis courts.
* Café/ juice bar on ground floor.
* Day spa including five therapy rooms, hamman bath, manicure/ pedicure rooms and tranquility area.
* Golf centre incorporating five golf simulators and golf lounge.
* Daycare centre with outdoor play area.
Despite the building work, SPORTSCO has remained fully operational and succeeded in maintaining the White Flag and the Q-Mark Awards for 2008. These achievements are due to the high level of customer service offered by all staff and management alike.
SPORTSCO is now one of the leading leisure facilities in the country, offering state of the art facilities at competitive prices.
