Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic time playing tennis at St Claire Recreation Centre yesterday. The courts were in excellent condition, and the ample space made it easy to enjoy a comfortable game. The overall atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy coming to this gym as part of my exercise routine. The class range is great, there is something for everyone and the coaches and friendly and helpful in giving guidance for correct form of particular movements. The range of equipment is also great. It's a very affordable membership price when comparing to other gyms with steeper prices, which is great in these times of the cozzie livs crisis! The coffee at the desk is great too! I'd fully recommend becoming a member of this gym.

Positive experience: Didn't go in. Impressive outside, ultra modern building, spacious, ample parking. Spotted an odd guy in a coat and open red shirt, sneaking behind cars and checking out something. Noticed that as he did the same to car. Couldn't figure out what he's up to. Later walked into the building!

Jacqui Gower 9 months ago

Positive experience: The event was good but the centre staff forgot to unlock the change rooms which made the lines and wait for the bathroom even longer because of people having to use them as change rooms

Dianne Sawtell 9 months ago

Positive experience: Very lg area filled with clothes stalls and heaving with people! No change rooms therefore toilets were over crowded with people trying on clothes! A very different experience shopping for clothes!!

Alice Jones 9 months ago

Positive experience: Well I have to say my experience was quite enjoyable, there's nothing better than when someone compliments you at the door, to put you in the mood. I had a great run getting there, in traffic which was super cool too. I ended buying more than I thought, with 4 retro tops and a pair of sunnies, fake nails and a bangle. The real bargain was the gorgeous rose gold light knee length kimino.

Fantastic experience: All staff at the YMCA St.Claire gym are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and know your name. As a 72 Y.O. I am glad I have joined and already feeling the benefits after just a few weeks. I would highly recommend this facility.

Lorraine 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As a senior citizen, it has taken me several years to get back to the gym after a long time of making too many excuses of why I shouldn’t join. Thankfully the team of trainers have given me the encouragement to be a better version of myself. Through their care, coaching, interest in individuals and the greater group of members I am loving the experience. I am so pleased to have joined the YMCA at St Clair and look forward to each class. Totally recommend it.

Corey Barrett 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place to play basket ball, roller-skate, or use playground outside or outside skate/bmx/scooter park. My kids love it. Cafe for food, coffee, water or other drinks

Alesha 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I visited a few months ago as part of two separate pop culture markets/events and definitely enjoyed my experience. The main room is spacious and clean, with lots of available seating both in the bleachers and with stacks of chairs for use if needed. The cafe out the back was very busy on both occasions so must be doing something right.

Shokrullah Akhlaqi 1 year ago

Negative experience: We played futsal this season, we didn't have good memories at all in this hall, it's better not to play here. The Referees of the competitions do not know at all about soccer and rules of soccer,and the employees of this salon are rude and racist

Nemtullah Akhlaqi 1 year ago

Negative experience: Never recommend this place for those who want to play social indoor soccer. They disqualified our team in semifinals without any reason and I contact them for many times but they didn't response. And I didn't get any emails or phone calls regards of disqualifications. Never waste your money here It's all waste of money.

Negative experience: Very unprofessional staffs. It is two times in two weeks. Firstly, we had a booking till 9 pm over the phone but later we were requested to leave the court Following week, we had booking over phone and when we went there to play we were told there is no court available. What a ridiculous,stupid and unprofessional staffs Kindly request to the management team of the centre please check the people about their mental health before hiring I think there multiple staffs are suffering with dementia they don’t know what they are talking and doing over phone Worst staffs happy to give zero rating

Daniel Costa Alonso 1 year ago

Negative experience: Arrived to play tennis at 5pm, played for half hour then the sun went down, but the reflectors only turn on 7PM. Why? Still on day light saving schedule, eve though it was finished long ago.

Hi Daniel - sorry to hear about your experience. Please note however that this Google business account is just associated with the recreation centre itself. The tennis courts, fields and playground are not managed by us, and hence feedback can be directed to council (Charles Sturt). With this in mind, your one star review is misplaced (it would be appreciated if you could remove your rating).

Pedro Henrique Araujo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely place with excellent people. The trainer team are well prepared and very kind.

Martina Matta 1 year ago

Positive experience: The facility itself is fantastic but it's always so dirty, unkempt, the running of it quite disorganised, sometimes the courts are not even set up ready for fixtures which eats in to our playing times. We have now done clinics and school comps since 2018 there and it hasn't changed. Not sure if it's a reflection on the local high school which uses the centre as an extension of their gym but if that's how students are behaving and treating the facility by vandalizing and damaging toilets and other areas on premises like under stair wells and within skate park then they shouldn't be allowed to use it. Sometimes bringing young kids does not feel safe or conducive of a community sporting facility.

Swanika Ramkumar 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: A few months ago my baby daddy went to jail for embezzlement. My daughter Loren was so devastated. She hates my new boyfriend. I took her to YMCA to cheer her up. It’s quite hard on the kids. Even though money is tight, I thought I might just have this day to make her feel better. Before my therapist moved to Morocco she told me how important these developing months are for kids! Penny was running the roller skating. She made my daughters day! My daughter had completely forgotten about her dad in Prison! She was so happy as she doesn’t have many friends, so Penny was kind enough to be her friend. Thankyou YMCA and thankyou Penny!

Positive experience: Good range of food and nice staff, easily accessible by public transportation which is nice, the food isn’t the best but for a Rex centre it’s pretty good, wish there was better signage for where the courts are located

rosario macri 2 years ago

Negative experience: St. Clair is a compleat joke apparently people in the western suburbs don’t play tennis in summer so they don’t allow the lights to go on ! You have to go to a more affluent suburb to enjoy those sort of facilities…

Negative experience: Membership is a scam - I cancelled mine and was told they will still charge another fortnightly payment and was NOT told this on joining. They literally said "cancel anytime".

St Clair Recreation Centre - YMCA
St Clair Recreation Centre - YMCA

Hi Brian. Thanks for your review. Memberships require 14 days notice for cancellation, which includes one more debit period as outlined in the membership terms. The smell you refer to may be due to the plants out the front of the centre which have a strong smell. Should you have any further feedback about the centre please email us on [email protected]. Thanks, The St Clair Recreation Centre Team
