Great news! We are expanding the gym by building a brand new studio. This will be located behind the gym reception and will provide us with an amazing new strength and conditioning space. Even better, we start the building work almost immediately – Monday 12th May and hope to have the new studio ready for use in August 2025.
We aim to minimise any disruption, but inevitably, we will need to make a few changes and adapt to support the build, especially in the initial few weeks.
The Gym Studio project has been more than 6 years in the making and has been achieved through a community partnership between Boroughmuir Rugby and CrossFit Skirmish. Not only did we realise the potential for gym expansion, but together, we embarked on an ambitious fundraising and sponsorship plan to make it a reality. Although there were a few obstacles along the way (COVID and soaring building costs), we were fortunate to win financial support from the Scottish Rugby Union, Garfield Weston and various other sponsors, including ourselves, CrossFit Skirmish. We also raised further project funds through events like ‘The Italian Job’ to push the project over the finish line.
The new space will be shared between Boroughmuir Rugby Club and CrossFit Skirmish and will allow both enterprises to develop community fitness for all offering Gym, Hyrox and CrossFit of course.
