In addition to the pool, the College has two large sprung floor halls for playing most indoor sports. The complex also includes two squash courts and a 20 foot rock climbing wall. Students at LC have the good fortune to be in an institution with outstanding facilities and we encourage our students to take full advantage to help assist them in reaching their full educational potential.

The climbing wall can only be used if a qualified climbing instructor is present at all times. Equipment is not supplied by the College.
