  • Where is York Sport Village, and how do I get there?

    York Sport Village is located just off Hull Road, by Grimston Bar Park & Ride. It is situated on the edge of the University of York’s Heslington East Campus.

    Buses regularly stop right in front of the Village’s doors to the university campus and the city centre. Please click here for the timetables.

    The number 6 bus can take you to Heslington East Campus, which is a short walk from the Sport Village. The Sport Village is only a short walk away from the number 8 Grimston Bar Park & Ride.

    You can also access the Sport Village by foot. Access is available from the Heslington East campus off Field Lane. Follow Kimberlow Lane past the interchange and Langwith College and follow the path which is suitable for pedestrians and cyclists to the York Sport Village. There is no vehicle access from this campus.

  • I have a 10-for-8 swim card! Can I access the member changing rooms?

    Our member changing rooms, health suite, and gym facilities are exclusive to our members. Non-members with 10-for-8 cards are welcome to use our public changing rooms located to the right of our reception desk. If you would like to enquire about membership (or book a tour of our members-only areas) please ask at reception.

  • Do you have accessible changing facilities?

    Yes, we have two accessible changing rooms, one of which is a radar room with a track hoist. The changing rooms are free for members and pay-as-you-go customers, or £2 if you would like to use just this facility. You’ll need to collect the key from our reception team.
