The Project

Trent Bridge is home to Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club. Day to day in season, players use the gym pre-game for activation, and players who aren't selected get their strength training done.

The design followed several conversations about the modernisation and specialisation needed. Athletes needed floor space for mobility, Olympic lifting and functional movements. That meant four power racks, four platforms and a 10m astro track, giving athletes everything they need and letting coaches run efficient sessions.

Safety was a priority too, with new flooring and storage racks to keep kettlebells, dumbbells and weight plates accessible and away from trip hazards.

Liam, Head of Strength & Conditioning: "The athletes use the gym for many different movements, needing a hybrid approach: strength, mobility, activation and rehab, all in one functional space. In the off-season it's really busy, with a lot of players working on strength, mobility and power, so we need the right facilities and kit."

"When I first started at Trent Bridge, the facility was a public gym with lots of different machines, but not very specialist. Having Again Faster come in and provide us with this level of facility is great."
