BROOK Leisure Centre, located on Summerhill Road, Dunmurry is a £15 million investment and has created a brand new facility at the heart of the community in the Colin area. The centre boasts a spacious gym with 60 workout stations including state-of-the-art Technogym cardio and resistance stations, dedicated free weight and functional training areas.
The fitness studio offers a variety of classes from yoga to total body conditioning.

There are seven new 3G outdoor pitches. Three are covered for all-weather use. There is an outdoor hurling wall adjacent to the pitches. Over 40 sports clubs across Belfast use the pitches at Brook Leisure Centre every week and it has become a centre for sporting development in the area.
