Life Fitness equips specialist sports college
Helping to reinforce its position as a specialist sports college, Fearns Community Sports College in Bacup, Lancs., has just received an extensive refurbishment by Life Fitness.
The company has installed 13 cardiovascular machines from its 93 Series including treadmills, upright and recumbent Lifecycles, a cross-trainer and Concept2 rowing machines, as well as a comprehensive range of 13 Pro2SE resistance machines.
The college caters for pupils aged 11 to 16 years and - having achieved specialist status in 2004 - continues to work in partnership with Lancashire County Council to develop a dual use facility.
Consisting of a sports hall, school gym and floodlit astroturf pitch, the range of activities on offer includes everything from football and gymnastics through to karate and trampolining.
During the day, it is available to pupils from the college, plus those from five other schools in the area. It also sees use by an extensive GP Referral Scheme set up in conjunction with the local Primary Care Trust.
Finally, the facilities are available for use by the general public and clubs in the evenings and at weekends.
