Indoors sports halls at both Sports Centres are mostly reserved for the training and practices sections of the University's students who have the highest priority to use any of the sports facilities.

6. How could I use the fitness room?

In order to streamline fitness facility access to any of the three CSE fitness facilities, the existing FRAP (Fitness Room Accreditation Programme) has ceased to exist from August 31, 2014. Users are encouraged to read and understand the assumption of risk in using any of CSE's fitness facilities. Additionally, users who are unaccustomed to exercising are recommended to seek the advice of a medical professional before engaging in physical activity.

Staff and students who are still interested in joining our Fitness Centre Introductory Course for each of the centers are encouraged to register online through the University's Event Management System (EMS) service. These orientation programmes will continue to provide staff and students with a platform for learning safe and effective use of equipment within each fitness facility. Users are also encouraged to seek the advice of attending staff members if they are unfamiliar with any equipment. To assist in helping you familiarize with our fitness equipment CSE has also provided descriptions and links to all of the equipment in all centers for easy reference.

7. Do I need to cancel my booking if it rains or the weather is too humid to use outdoors courts?

Hirers should call the Sports Centres (Flora Ho Sports Centre: 2817 3768 / Stanley Ho Sports Centre: 2819 4427) not earlier than 1 hour before the booking time to check if the weather condition at the Sports Centre and if the facility concerned is closed due to adverse weather. The Sports Centre staff would advise you accordingly. If hirers do not show up while the facilities concerned are still good for use, such will be considered as a "No-show" and the hirers concerned will be subject to a No-show penalty.
