Renamed Canolfan Brailsford, the Sport Centre will reopen, having been closed for the last two weeks for the final touches of a year-long remodelling and refurbishment project, and an investment of 拢2.5 million.
The refurbished University Sports facilities include a brand new two-storey gym, a new aerobics studio, the complete replacement and upgrade of the public changing rooms and showers, and a new floor in the main sports hall.
This is part of a wider investment in sports facilities at 58吃瓜 which includes the new 拢.5 million indoor tennis and netball facility at 58吃瓜's Sport Centre, opened by Lord Coe in November, and a third-generation artificial pitch at Bangor City FC鈥檚 ground at Nantporth, which will be home to both University student teams and a host of community clubs from September.
Bangor鈥檚 Vice-Chancellor, Professor John G Hughes, said: 鈥淏angor has recently invested millions of pounds in developing new academic and social facilities for students, making it an even more attractive place to study.鈥�
