The Redevelo<br />

Sports<br />

The <strong>Radley</strong> <strong>College</strong> Sports Centre has<br />

been transformed to provide a much<br />

more vibrant and energetic environment,<br />

following the development of a fitness<br />

suite and weights room, and the<br />

refurbishment of the swimming pool,<br />

changing rooms and reception areas.<br />

Together with the squash courts, real<br />

tennis court and sports hall, the centre<br />

boasts some first class facilities. Indeed,<br />

with the recent introduction of the real<br />

tennis court, <strong>Radley</strong> has become the only<br />

school to have both a real tennis and a<br />

rackets court.<br />

The new fitness suite occupies an area<br />

that was largely unused. Not only does<br />

it provide excellent facilities, it has<br />

also enhanced the visual aspect of the<br />

centre. The suite has over thirty pieces<br />

of traditional gym equipment such as<br />

treadmills, cross trainers and rowing<br />

machines. It also has nine ‘spin bikes’<br />

and the centre runs a number of weekly<br />

spin classes, with spinning becoming an<br />

important part of many people’s training<br />

regime.<br />

The weights room is extremely popular<br />

amongst boys and plays a critical role in<br />

preparing them for their chosen sports.<br />
