DW Sports Fitness
Dave Whelan has bought the 52 JJB Fitness Clubs and attached retail stores. Not only was Dave the original founder of JJB Sports, he was also the Chairman and principal shareholder in JJB Sports Plc until he sold the business in 2007.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU, THE MEMBERS?
DW Sports will offer a unique concept that we hope will be the most exciting sporting experience of the year. Working more closely than ever with retail, we will achieve a retail offering that suits the needs of all our members, whilst still maintaining the award winning* standard of Fitness Club.
You will notice little changes such as the signage, different staff uniforms and new style membership cards, etc etc. However, everything you like about your club including exercise classes, and low membership prices will carry on. Member offers in retail will also grow, ensuring we add further value to your membership. What more the clubs will continue to grow with 9 more clubs planned to open in the next 18 months.
Dave Whelan shares our passion for cleanliness, good operational performance and expects members to get excellent value for money. The future of our wonderful clubs is safe in hands.
