Two new leisure venues are now under construction both at Graves and also at Thorncliffe in High Green.
The two new facilities in the north and south of the city are the first new public leisure facilities to be built in Sheffield in a decade.

National operator Places for People Leisure was selected earlier this year to run both of the multi-million pound new leisure and health venues, which will open in 2016.
The Graves development will include a six-lane 25m swimming pool, a separate learner pool, a major new fitness suite and studios, two additional indoor tennis courts and Sheffield’s first-ever dedicated gymnastics and trampolining centre.
Both centres will also incorporate health and research facilities as part of the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine (NCSEM). This unique relationship with the NCSEM – an Olympic Legacy project – brings health and wellbeing services under one roof.
