Decision made by management due to reduced demand
The National Sports Centre's fitness zone will have reduced weekend evening hours from 4 January due to lower demand.
The Department of Education, Sport and Culture says the impact on users will be 'minimal' and full-time staff will not be affected.
The decision is understood to be part of an ongoing operational review by the NSC's management.
