This will be a place where tennis, squash, fitness, cycling and martial arts enthusiasts can come to work out, as well as those who are interested in aerobics or modern dance. The gym will also offer separate sauna zones for men and women with relaxation lounges.”
The new sports centre will have competition standard outdoor tennis courts and professional squash courts. There will also be a specially designed gym featuring state-of-the-art equipment, a climbing wall and a martial arts room with Everlast equipment, which is the leading brand worldwide.
