Paul Laney 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have regularly attended the Y for just over 12 months on a fitness passport membership. All the staff at the Y have been very welcoming, helpful and supportive, so I made the decision to cancel my fitness passport and sign with the Y. Just a small way of saying thank you. I've recently suffered a few injuries, and I've received great guidance from all the staff, in particularly Travis in the gym area. I'm well on my way to getting back to full fitness, and can't speak highly enough of everyone involved at the Y. Thanks to all involved

Jodie Waite 1 year ago

Negative experience: Poorly run when sign has No spectators on court yet allow at least 10 spectators, supporting one team who sat with their legs out straight making it difficult for players to run. If rules aren’t being followed can staff please manage this?

Natalia Polizzano 1 year ago

Negative experience: My team and I wanted to book a casual shooting, and that is not possible?!!!!! The lady at the desk at morning time is so unfriendly and asked to download an app and completed the day before, while other workers there are lovely, helpful and book it in when we rock up. We are all mums, with schedule here and there which make us hard to go to training so, casual shooting is our best fit.. Hopefully she can learn good manners, read a little about customer service y stop being that rude.

Helen Wright 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great crèche for the morning netball games. The gym has everything you need. Everyone is so friendly & the netball competition is great.

Harvey Duff 2 years ago

Positive experience: Beware if playing on Court 3. Lots of gum leaves on the court that could easily cause slipping hazards for the players. I know it's not District basketball but maybe the occasional court sweep between matches could stop an injury and/or compo claim...

milena Nikolovski 2 years ago

Negative experience: Very poorly organized, certainly not disability friendly hardly any dealers there and the ones that did show well 1/2 the stock had no pricing on the goods and to be honest prices are very similar to store prices. Plus $5. Entry was the icing on the cake for me. Not in my plan in the future to bother going again

Marion Leisure & Fitness Centre - YMCA

Hi Milena. It sounds like your review is for the craft fair which was held over the weekend. If you have any feedback for the organisers of the fair who hired our facility we kindly ask you pass it on to them. Our centre has disability parking, ramps, and toilets for accessibility. Should you have any concerns in regards to accessing the centre please email us on [email protected], accessibility for visitors is important to us.Thanks,The Marion Leisure and Fitness Centre team.

Marion Leisure & Fitness Centre - YMCA

Bryan Scherer 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have attended the Gym for many years now (indeed prior to the YMCA). I am delighted to say the Y has added significant value with extra and new equipment (along with a range of programs and classes). Recent refurbishment has further enhanced the comfort and utility for its members. For me, it is ideally situated in close proximity to my home (obviously that does not necessarily apply to all participants). Staff are very friendly and co-operative. Finally, I observe that attendance and participation at a Gym can be a social event as you get to know others (one cannot understate the psychological benefits that are possible for the individual, beyond anything that can be realised with our health and fitness!). I commend the Centre to anyone considering becoming a member. Bryan Scherer

Rob Mclean 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: A few years ago the gym changed and I left as the equipment which was put in at the time was in my opinion not the best. A few weeks ago I was wanted to see if anything had changed and I was so blown away with the changes I ew joined. The equipment was back up to a good standard and the makeover was just Fantastic and the staff are great and welcomed me back. Really feels like I am back home and enjoying working out at mlfc again.

Brian Bosecke 3 years ago

Paul Thornton 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Good Gym. Modern equipment, Staff are friendly. I seem to have very little issues getting on the equipment I need. The Pool is also an added bonus to break up the Gym routine every now and then. The RFC lockers also makes it very simple as you do not need a key to carry around. I would recommend this Gym.

Beat Odermatt 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym with no rip-off type contracts. You pay for what you get and not for shackle type contracts and exit fees. Staff was cheerful and friendly and there is no silly "boot camp" type atmosphere.

Leah Mach 3 years ago

Negative experience: Poor experience, never going back. Would never play in a social competition here again!! A lot of money a game for umpires that can’t see or run! Biased umpires, once a fun game, has turned into middle school squabbles.

Marion Leisure & Fitness Centre - YMCA

Hi LeahThanks for your review, we’re sorry to hear about your experience with umpires during your game. We pride ourselves on providing fair and fun social sports competitions. If you have any further feedback about your experience please email us at [email protected] and we will be happy to discuss personally.Thanks,Marion Leisure and Fitness Centre
