Sandwell Aquatics Centre is a world class facility, a fantastic legacy from the 2022 Commonwealth Games, now serving the local community but also an aquatic centre of excellence, located in the heart of the Midlands, to host regional and national aquatic events right here in Sandwell. 


Hosting major events is a privilege for the borough as it will attract swimmers, diving athletes and aquatic sports teams to participate, train and compete in a quality 50m competition pool with 1,000 dedicated spectator seating and a 25m, 5m deep, dive pool also capable of hosting water polo, artistic swimming and sub-aqua clubs.


These events require temporary changes to the regular pool programme and public swimming times. Key event dates and pool programme information for when pools are temporarily not available for public are available on our website events page for Sandwell Aquatics Centre. We ask our customers to please check the latest pool programme each month to be aware of any temporary changes that may impact on availability and public swimming.


Please also remember that the ONE Card membership provides inclusive access to other Sandwell Leisure Trust swimming facilities.
