Public Swimming Prices

York Sport Village is proud to have not one, but two swimming pools open to members and the local community! 

Our competition-standard 8 lane Main Pool is one of the best in the region! This 25m pool is perfect for serious lane swimmers or a few lengths after a session in the gym. We also have a 18m Small Pool which is perfect for those learning to swim, and for families looking for fun. Our training pool also hosts our very own multiple award-winning swim scheme!

Both pools are open to the public daily, with access to cubicle changing rooms as well as lockers and showers for you to use. Hairdryers are available for use for 20p. York Sport Cafe is located next to our reception area and has a great view of the pool if one member of your party doesn’t fancy getting wet on the day. There is no longer any need to pre-book for swimming – simply arrive for the session you would like to attend and pay at our Reception! Please be aware we can only accept card payment at reception, and you will need £1 or a token in order to access the lockers.
