NSC swimming pool to reopen this weekend

Tue, 13 Aug 2019

The main swimming pool at the National Sports Centre in Douglas will reopen to the public this weekend.

Final testing of the pool will take place this Thursday and Friday. Subject to any unforeseen difficulties, the pool will then reopen to the public at 9.00am on Saturday 17 August.

Due to the leisure pool and flumes remaining closed at this stage, a reduced capacity to manage the number of people in the pool at one time will be in place.

Public swim sessions will take place at the following times on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 August:

Quiet sessions (no toys or floats):

09.00-10.15am

16.30-19.00pm

Fun sessions (with toys and floats):

10.30am-12.00 noon

12.30- 14.00pm

14.30-16.00pm

Lane swimming will be available throughout the day.

Public swim sessions cannot be pre booked and with an expected high demand during the summer holidays, swim sessions will be managed on a first served basis.
