Despite the confusion in the media, we understand that “walk up” charges will be available for the new competition standard swimming pool when it opens on Hull Road in August.
The organisers tell us that, “The pool is also available on a pay as you go basis with discounts available for concessions and York card holders. These details will be available on the website shortly once confirmed but will range between £3.20-£4.55”.
The Pool will be open for everyone to use and enjoy from 6am-11pm during the week and 6:30am-11pm on weekends.
The admission charges are comparable with the Energise pool on Cornlands Road where the charges are Adult (with YorkCard) £3.65, Adult (standard) £4.55.

The Sports Village results from an agreement, signed in 2010, between the York Council and the University of York, which incorporated public access conditions.
