Football fans and tennis aces are being invited to kick off 2024 in style at the Allander Leisure Centre in Bearsden.
Two indoor football pitches and a tennis court are now available to book at the centre's new Sports Dome, which opened its doors on Monday (8 January).
The facility has been built on the site of the old Allander and is accessed via the new centre.
Work has also been completed on the Allander car park, with more than 250 spaces now available, including bays for people with disabilities. In addition, there's a shelter for cycles and electric vehicle charging spaces will be online soon.
The new Sports Dome – operated by East Dunbartonshire Leisure and Culture (EDLC) Trust – is the last phase of the Council’s Allander Leisure Centre project.
The Sports Dome is already proving popular, with bookings filling up fast. It offers two large indoor football pitches – suitable for 5v5 or 6v6 – and an indoor tennis court, which can be used for both singles and doubles. We look forward to welcoming you.
Bookings can be made online through the Leisure app/Leisure Hub, by telephone or in person. Visit the Leisure Hub, call 0141 777 3070 or pop into the Allander Leisure Centre, Milngavie Road, Bearsden G61 3DF.
