Frequently asked questions

Where does the sport session data come from?

Sessions and availability come directly from the Royal Holloway Sports Centre booking system. Availability updates regularly throughout the day as people book and cancel, so the numbers are close to live rather than a stale snapshot.

Can I book sessions through the RHUL Mobile app?

The app shows you what is available and when. Booking itself happens through the university's own Sports Centre booking system. Tap the booking link on a session and the app hands off to the right page so you can confirm in a few taps.

How accurate is the availability count?

Very close to live. There can be a short delay between someone booking on the university system and that change showing in the app, so during peak periods the number can be a couple of spots out. Good enough for planning.

What sports are available at Royal Holloway?

The Sports Centre runs gym classes (spin, yoga, HIIT, BodyPump, Pilates), swimming, badminton, tennis, football, climbing, plus open fitness suite hours. Team Royal Holloway clubs (BUCS fixtures, intra-mural leagues) appear under the Societies tab.

Is the gym included?

Yes. Fitness suite open hours and any peak-time capacity are shown in the Sport tab. The gym uses a membership-based access rather than a per-session booking, so the app links you to the membership page if you don't already have one.

Are the swimming pool times shown?

Yes. Lane swim sessions, casual swim, family swim (during holidays), aqua aerobics and any club-only slots are all listed. Each session shows the lane availability where the Sports Centre publishes it.

Can I see Team Royal Holloway fixtures?

Yes. Wednesday afternoon BUCS fixtures and home matches for the Team Royal Holloway sports clubs appear in the Events tab as well as on the relevant society's page. Free to attend as a supporter for most fixtures.

Do I need to book in advance for the gym or classes?

Classes typically need booking via the university system; the gym fitness suite is normally drop-in for members during open hours. The app shows you which is which on each session listing.

Is the app free?

The app is free. The Sports Centre membership and per-session fees are unchanged and set by the university; the app only shows availability and links to the official booking flow.
