About Us
Lakeridge Athletic Club
Welcome to Lakeridge Athletic Club! Located on six acres and nestled in the hills of El Sobrante, our 22,000 square foot, country-club-style health and fitness resort is a full-service athletic club equipped to provide something for everyone. Originally opened in the 1960’s as Canyon Swim Club, the Club offered one of the largest pools in the county ranging from 2 feet to 12 feet in depth. One side of our pool has six, 25-yard lap lanes for our lap swimmers and deep water classes. The other side is equal in size to the lap section and is for paddling or splashing around. When racquetball grew in popularity in the early 70’s, the Club responded by expanding the facility and building six racquetball courts along with a small fitness center and changing their name to Canyon Swim and Racquet Club.
As the community grew and local interests and needs changed, the Club continued to evolve and converted two of the racquetball courts into additional fitness space with areas designated for free weights, weight machines, and cardiovascular equipment as well as an upstairs aerobics studio. In the mid 80’s, the Club changed its name again to the now familiar Lakeridge Athletic Club and installed four outdoor, lighted tennis courts, an outdoor basketball court, a sauna and whirlpool, and a childcare facility to truly become full-service.
The Club has continued its forward growth with major renovation programs including tennis court surface stabilization and resurfacing, locker room upgrades, state-of-the-art weight machines and cardiovascular equipment, lobby re-design, pool upgrades and deck expansion, and two Bocce courts with leagues just to name a few. With ongoing mid and long-range facility-improvement and upgrade plans, Lakeridge Athletic Club will continue to remain on the cutting edge of fitness. We are your full-service health and fitness resort – a place where you will be proud to bring the whole family and friends.
