Open Gym Hours at the Athletic Centre
- Access Update
Effective May 21, 2024, Sport & Rec has implemented a pilot program requiring all members to scan their TCard or membership card to access the AC Strength and Conditioning Centre. A new scanner has been placed at the SCC entrance, so please ensure you bring your card with you to your workouts in this space. After scanning your card, you can use the space as you normally would.
By scanning your card upon entry, you are helping us to better understand how our space is used. We will be able to identify key information, such as usage volumes in the space and peak usage times. This will inform and improve our programming in the future. Please note that data collected by the new SCC scanner is the same data already collected by the Athletic Centre’s main entrance scanners.
If you have any questions or concerns, you can speak to a member of our Fitness & Performance team or contact fitness.performance@utoronto.ca.
