Macquarie Sports Centre & Sports Field

Macquarie University provide students with various choices of sports and fitting programmes. The Uni has two main hubs for doing sports. 

The first one is Macquarie University Sports and Aquatic Centre, which lies northwest to the main buildings of the Uni, near Culloden Rd. Generally, it is a one-stop sport and fitness hub that can fulfil your most active need regardless of age or fitness levels. It contains a Health Club, two swimming pools(one 25m long, another 50m long), Sport Clubs and squash courts.The operating hours are 5:30am - 10:00pm from Monday to Friday, and 6:00am - 7:00pm for Saturday, Sunday and public holidays. The price is quite fair, $67.50 for 3 weeks, including unlimited swimming, Gym plus 100+ classes (inc. Zumba, Yoga, Pilates and more) New Weights Area, Touch Screen Cardio and so on.







The second one is Macquarie University Sports Fields. It is located near the junction of Culloden Rd and Talavera Rd. It is about 5 minutes to drive to there from the Uni. The main programme provided here are footy, rugby, soccer and tennis, which the Sports and Aquatic Centre could not provide due to the limit of place. It contains 3 Oval ground for footy and rugby, two square field for soccer and 12 tennis courts( including 3 Australian-Open-Standard hard courts and 4 clay courts). For the tennis courts, it costs at most $20 per hour as appropriate. For the others, they are free to use unless there're games or training programmes .
