Penistone is fortunate enough to have its own small leisure centre. The following information was supplied by the centre itself and was correct at the time of writing (October 2009).

"We are part of Barnsley Premier Leisure and despite being one of the smaller facilities, have lots to offer!

"We hold a variety of fitness classes for adults every week as well as football coaching and gymnastics for children.

"We are also available for other bookings such as five-a-side football, badminton and table tennis. We offer a variety of activities for over 50s including a weekly Tea Dance held on Tuesdays and our weekly Young At Heart keep fit and fun class with exercises to music, relaxation techniques and circuit activities. Both of these classes are also great social events and an opportunity to make new friends!

"Our fitness rooms are available for use during our opening times and are available for use by anyone over 16 after signing a brief health declaration form.

"We have recently made some improvements to our facilities and are always planning further work.
