CLUB RULES

To help keep the atmosphere at the Club and create a respectful environment for all members we politely request that the following rules be observed.

GUESTS

Admitted on payment in advance of the Guest Fee. Guests must book with the club in advance. Members must accompany their guests at all times and members shall not leave the Club premises before their guests. All guests must sign the guest book and the appropriate Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire. The club reserves the right to refuse admission to a guest for reasons of health and safety or if the proposed guest has previously not complied with club rules.

FITNESS AREAS

Club approved footwear and clothing must be worn at all times. Access to the fitness areas may be limited in the event of classes or pre-organised sessions. Details of these will be posted on Club notice boards.

SAUNA/STEAM ROOM

Members must ensure they are aware of the age restrictions (as displayed on Club notice boards, or as instructed by staff) applying to the use of the Sauna/Steam Room by minors. Minors must be supervised by an accompanying adult at all times unless otherwise permitted by the Club. Members and Guests must shower after using the Sauna and Steam Room and before using the Swimming Pool. Shaving and exfoliating are not permitted in the Sauna or Steam Room.

SUNBED FACILITIES

Members must ensure they are aware of the age restrictions (as displayed on Club notice boards, or as instructed by staff) applying to the use of the Sunbeds and other tanning facilities. Members and Guests should ensure that they familiarise themselves with the Sunbed and tanning information notices and complete the questionnaire issued by the Club prior to their first session. Safety goggles must be worn whilst Sunbeds are in operation. Members and guests are requested to clean the Sunbeds before and after use with the fluid provided.

CHANGING ROOMS

No children are allowed in the changing room of the opposite sex once they have reached the age determined by the Club. Club staff or other users of the changing rooms at the time may agree to relax this particular restriction in particular circumstances.

LOCKERS

For security reasons, Members and Guests are asked to store personal belongings in the lockers provided. All usage of lockers is governed by the membership terms and conditions. Lockers are provided on a daily basis only, and items left overnight will be removed on the following day and treated as lost property.

LOST PROPERTY

All lost property found on the premises should be handed in to the Club reception. Items whose ownership cannot be identified will be stored by the Club for three weeks and then donated to local charities. Items which appear valuable may be sold with the proceeds donated to charity.

SAFETY AND HYGIENE

In the interest of Safety and Hygiene, no crockery or glasses are allowed in the changing rooms, fitness areas, dance studios, swimming pool and other activity areas. No pets will be allowed in the Club premises, with the exception of guide dogs. Entry to the Club is only permitted at the Club reception and entrance. Fire exits, which are clearly marked, are there in the interests of safety and members and guests must not interfere with these doors for any reason. In the event of an emergency evacuation, members and guests must immediately make their way in an orderly fashion to the nearest available exit.

BEHAVIOUR

If any member shall cause nuisance or annoyance to other members, guests or Club staff, or misuse the Club facilities, or breach any etiquette guidelines, or generally behave inappropriately, the Club reserves the right to refuse admission or suspend or terminate membership. In particular, abusive language, threatening or violent behaviour will not be tolerated. All minors using the Club must be supervised by an accompanying adult at all times. No photography (including the taking of images through a mobile phone or camcorder) is allowed in any area of the Club.

COMMENTS AND COMPLAINTS

Please refer to any comments or complaints to a member of the Club staff. Written complaints must be addressed to the Club General Manager.

GENERAL

No food or drink, alcoholic or otherwise, or illegal substances may be brought into and consumed within the Club or its grounds.

The Club is a non smoking environment.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY READINESS QUESTIONNAIRE

Upon joining the club all new members are required to complete and sign a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire. The purpose of this is to ensure that the club’s staff are fully informed of any physical or medical condition which could affect the members ability or suitability to take part in physical activities. Only if the club’s staff are fully and accurately informed, can they assess the member’s health and fitness level and prepare an appropriate exercise program. The club strongly recommends that all members seek medical advice before commencing a new exercise programme and The Club reserves the right to request a doctor’s certificate and to reject a membership application if a satisfactory doctor’s certificate is not received by The Club.
