Mount Albert Community and Leisure Centre sits on New North Road in the heart of Mount Albert, right beside the Mount Albert War Memorial Hall. Operated by Community Leisure Management (CLM), the centre brings together a gym, group fitness classes, an indoor stadium and flexible hire spaces under one roof — a one-stop spot for locals looking to keep themselves, and their families, moving.
The gym is the centre's everyday anchor: a place to train before work, at lunchtime or in the evening, with facility hours running from 6am to 9pm Monday to Thursday. If you prefer training with others, the group fitness timetable layers structured classes on top, and the current timetable is published online so you can plan your first session before you arrive.
Then there's the stadium — where things get competitive, or gloriously social. Pickleball, basketball and badminton headline the indoor sport line-up, with the centre promising 'so much more' besides. Whether you're chasing a weekly badminton game with friends or a casual pickleball session, the indoor courts give Mount Albert residents a weather-proof place to play all year round.
The centre describes its fitness options as designed to keep your family active and engaged — and its kids' programmes back that up. Children can take up basketball through dedicated kids' basketball programmes, or build coordination and confidence in kids' gymnastics classes. For older members, there's a dedicated seniors' offering, making this a genuinely multi-generational facility.
For parents, that mix matters: a single trip can cover your own workout and a sport session or class for the kids, without shuttling across town between venues.
Beyond sport and fitness, the centre opens its spaces to the neighbourhood. The stadium, group exercise rooms and meeting rooms are all available for hire, which makes it a practical option for sports clubs needing court time, community groups looking for a regular meeting spot, or anyone planning a larger gathering in Mount Albert.
The centre is at 773 New North Road, Mount Albert, and the team can be reached on 09 846 0788 with any questions. Hours are 6am to 9pm Monday through Thursday, 6am to 8pm on Friday, and 8am to 5pm on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays — so early birds are covered on weekdays, while weekends run on a shorter day.

As part of the wider CLM network of leisure centres around New Zealand, it carries the polish of an experienced operator while keeping a distinctly neighbourhood feel — a community centre in the truest sense, where the same building can host a child's first gymnastics class, a senior's regular session and a local club's big game.
