The Epsom Aquatic Centre is a multi-purpose facility focused on the teaching, training and competition for a wide range of aquatic sports.
The high demand for pool time meant that the pool has usage 14 hours a day (6 am to 9.30 pm), 7 days a week, by community and school users. It is not possible to open the facility to casual users, nor to include high cost play activities, but to provide a cost effective facility focusing on meeting the needs of the community’s high intensity user groups without having a detrimental impact on other public pools.
Features
The key feature of the Epsom Aquatic Centre is its ability to function as a deep water facility as there is a major deficit in deep water pool time available. The Epsom Aquatic Centre was designed to cater for the greatest unsatisfied aquatic sport demand in the central Auckland Area.
