About Us

Where It All Began

Oakhill Academy is the brainchild of Tony Baron, a local businessman and Chairman of Oakhill College - one of the Valley’s leading independent schools. As part of the College’s development he decided to invest in an advanced sports hall which through the design and planning stage, grew into Oakhill Academy. Opened in the Autumn of 2007, this £multi-million, multi-purpose Fitness, Sports and Wellness centre, serves the whole community as well as being a world-class sports resource for the College.

As Individual As You Are

Individual personal attention and a family atmosphere are key elements of the College and this approach is also fundamental in the running of the Academy, making it unique amongst its peers. Where else can you join a centre that is family owned and managed and focuses so exclusively on providing individual attention?

Fitness, Sports & Wellness

This sense of individuality is also built into the gym equipment technology that records your own exercises against your own programme, combining it with data on your activities outside the centre, to give you your own Wellness profile.

Your dedicated Fitness Instructor will work with you to create a Wellness programme that specifically addresses your needs – whether your goals are athletic, general fitness and health, to shape up or to lose weight.

Some Sporting Highlights

In addition to the latest gym facilities you can enjoy your favourite sports by booking one of the many indoor or outdoor courts for cricket, bowling, tennis, hockey, netball, badminton, volleyball and much more.

Running Into The Future

If your running is your passion, or even just your pastime, the proposed Olympic quality athletics track will be a fantastic resource. The full size all weather pitch also currently in the pipeline will add yet another dimension to our facilities.
