Loughborough (pronounced as Luff-bra) University is famous for the sports sciences, anything to do with sports. In the summer, Loughborough is not a dead town cos there are many sports competition going on in the University.
There's an Olympic size swimming pool on the University campus, which just opened in 2002 and is one of the 5 Olympic size swimming pool in England. They are so proud of the pool.
The National training hockey pitch is within Loughborough campus too. And now they are constructing a National rugby pitch.
Equipment: Some insights:
During open days or open house of the University, the various and many sports facilities were shown to porspective students and parents. However, the information lacking is that most of these facilities are reserved for the elite. Tuff luck making a booking when the elite are training. Booking some of the new, modern facilities are just out of the question for normal students like the majority. So sportspeople who excel in sports, you will be well taken care of in Luff-bra. For normal students, just be "proud" that you are in a Uni that has got many sports facilities which you cannot use.
