Sobell closure dates

Islington Council is investing in the future of the Sobell Leisure Centre by carrying out essential repairs and upgrades costing £1.7m. This will lead to closures of facilities and activities through to September 2010. Check the improvement works timetable and centre access before you visit.

We have six courts available for ‘pay and play’. More competitive players may wish to join the squash league. We also have coached sessions for both beginners and improvers.
