A new Olympic size pool at the South Leeds Stadium (now the John Charles Centre for Sport). The home of Hunslet League Club; the existing complex also houses an indoor bowls centre, indoor running track and a tennis centre. The aquatics centre, opened on 29 October 2007, includes two submersible booms built into the main pool enable it to be divided into three pools of different sizes and depths, allowing a flexible daily swimming programme. A floating floor allows the depth of the diving pool and 1/3 of the main pool to be varied from two metres to shallow water for teaching and 0-5 meters for the diving pool. It was built as a replacement for the very dated facilities at the Leeds Internationsl Pool.
