Club Rules
Club Rules
To help keep the atmosphere and create a respectful environment for all members we politely request that the following rules be observed.
The Club’s opening hours, as amended from time to time, are displayed at reception.
Members must ensure they cease use of the Club facilities at least 30 minutes before the Club closes to allow adequate time for showering and dressing.
Admitted on payment in advance of the Guest Fee. Guests must book with the Club in advance. Members must accompany their guests at all times and members shall not leave the Club premises before their guests. All guests must sign the guest book and the appropriate Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire. The Club reserves the right to refuse admission to a guest for reasons of health and safety or if the proposed guest has previously not complied with Club rules.
Club approved footwear and clothing must be worn at all times. Access to the fitness areas may be limited in the event of classes or pre-organised sessions. Details of these will be posted on Club notice boards.
For security reasons, Members and Guests are asked to store personal belongings in the lockers provided. All usage of lockers is governed by the membership terms and conditions. Lockers are provided on a daily basis only, and items left overnight will be removed on the following day and treated as lost property.
All lost property found on the premises should be handed in to the Club reception. Items whose ownership cannot be identified will be stored by the Club for six weeks and then donated to local charities. Items which appear valuable may be sold with the proceeds donated to charity.
In the interest of Safety and Hygiene, no crockery or glasses are allowed in the changing rooms, fitness areas, dance studios, swimming pool and other activity areas. No pets will be allowed in the Club premises, with the exception of guide dogs. Entry to the Club is only permitted at the Club reception and entrance. Fire exits, which are clearly marked, are there in the interests of safety and members and guests must not interfere with these doors for any reason. In the event of an emergency evacuation, members and guests must immediately make their way in an orderly fashion to the nearest available exit.
If any member shall cause nuisance or annoyance to other members, guests or Club staff, or misuse the Club facilities, or breach any etiquette guidelines, or generally behave inappropriately, the Club reserves the right to refuse admission or suspend or terminate membership. In particular, abusive language, threatening or violent behaviour will not be tolerated. All minors using the Club must be supervised by an accompanying adult at all times. No photography (including the taking of images through a mobile phone or camcorder) is allowed in any area of the Club.
Please refer to any comments or complaints to a member of the Club staff. Written complaints must be addressed to the Club General Manager.
No food or drink, alcoholic or otherwise, or illegal substances may be brought into and consumed within the Club or its grounds. The Club is a non smoking environment.
Upon joining the Club all new members are required to complete and sign a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire. The purpose of this is to ensure that the Club’s staff are fully informed of any physical or medical condition which could affect the members ability or suitability to take part in physical activities. Only if the Club’s staff are fully and accurately informed, can they assess the member’s health and fitness level and prepare an appropriate exercise program. The Club strongly recommends that all members seek medical advice before commencing a new exercise programme and The Club reserves the right to request a doctor’s certificate and to reject a membership application if a satisfactory doctor’s certificate is not received by The Club.
