Hillsborough Leisure Centre

Hillsborough Leisure Centre is an indoor swimming facility in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, offering a shallow pool used by local dive clubs for introductory sessions, try-dives, and basic skill training. With a maximum depth of 2 meters, the pool provides a safe and warm environment for absolute beginners to experience their first breaths underwater and learn fundamental scuba skills. The facility is used for pool sessions that precede open water training at quarry sites like Capernwray or coastal venues. Sheffield's active diving community utilizes Hillsborough as a reliable weekly training venue, particularly during winter months when outdoor diving becomes less appealing.
