Swimming In Hyndburn Sports Centre

lancsdave · 04-03-2007, 15:08

Is not possible on a Sunday afternoon. Despite the web site saying it's open until 4.30pm as from the end of January it now closes at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon.

Hello Hyndburn this is 2007, places now open on Sundays, even shops.

They changer the times so often there I always ring before I set off. They are a pain in the butt!

That does seem rather early, a quiet time to swim is from about 4pm every day.

flashy · 04-03-2007, 16:19

Tinkerbelle · 04-03-2007, 16:30

TUT! As if we would stoop so low as to get us thrown into the over 18's

I always prefered watching the guys getting all sweaty pumping away in the gym Flashy

Yes very appauling was Hyndburn Sports centre

there was quite a few families that turned up this afternoon to go swimming as weather was appauling, they too checked the website for details, one disgruntled father nearly bust the doors on the way out as like rest of us wasted our time only to be told to go to Rossendale or shadsworth

. No wonder accy is getting worse when even the facilities are stopped or closed down & they wonder why kids doss on the st corners

HSC, wasn't aware that no changes were made to HBC website, their management committee decided to close early on Sunday at 2pm for swimming section from jan 31st 07, yet today they could of had a pool full this afternoon having a roaring trade

but sadly lost their trade to surrounding out of town areas instead & they wonder

& yet no member of the public was aware of this change either until they turn up like us today! But the swimming pool closes early than other places at 4.30pm on sat & 5pm weekday

so really not great times anyway as earlier than other places that can cater for after school swimmers till 6pm or even 8pm.

Luckily went elsewhere thanks to Hyndburn disappointing quite a lot of kiddies today hoping for a family swim

Hyndburn sports centre for swimming was great. However its gone really downhill. I advise you to go haslingden baths, its great , just big enough and not as many chemicals hardly non what so ever. At hyndburn aswell the food is very expensive also i used to go in there as a child after swimming to get chips and gravey my brother was telling me he went in there and its 2.10 for some chips with a little gravy! :O Also i think the hygiene in the changing rooms is awfull aswell.
