New Aquatics Center
Coming in 2024*
We continue to provide updates for the pool renovation project, which will began on Sept. 5. Substantial completion is scheduled for April 30 with re-opening prior to Memorial Day weekend 2024.
For updates, continue to visit this page to view the live stream of the progress.
During the renovation project, the following areas will be closed:
- Sports Club pool area
- Playground
- Sports Club parking lot
- Racquets Fresh Market patio
While both the Sports Club main and squash entrances will be open, members are encouraged to park in the squash lot and utilize the squash entrance from Sept. 5 through mid-May. The clay tennis courts will remain open until they are closed for the winter. Please see the map below that outlines the anticipated construction impact.
We finalized a lease agreement with Fairview Pool near the Belvedere neighborhood off Rio Road. Boar’s Head has exclusive use of the pool from Sept. 6 through mid-May 2024. Fairview recently renovated the pool and locker rooms, and the pool will be heated during the winter. Lane reservations can be made in Club Automation. Fairview lane reservations will be available at the following times:
- Monday – Thursday from 7:45 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
- Friday from 7:45 a.m. – 6 p.m.
- Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. – 4 p.m.
- Sunday from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m.
In addition, we have a limited number of spots available for dedicated lap swimmers to use UVA’s North Grounds pool. If you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity, please email Kate Leslie.
Please bring your own towel as towels will not be provided at either location.
We will provide periodic project updates and look forward to delivering the new aquatics complex to you. Thank you for your patience and understanding during the construction project.

Features
The design features an eight-lane, 25-yard competition pool, a zero-entry pool, a slide that exits into a whirlpool feature, an enhanced food and beverage outlet with a rooftop terrace, cabanas available for reservations and increased deck space.
Operational Impact
During the renovation, the Sports Club pools and surrounding areas will be closed for construction. In addition, there will be other impacts to Club operations as the entrance adjacent to the clay courts is likely to be closed. We will do everything possible to minimize the project impact on you.
Swim Alternatives
The Resort pool will be heated throughout the winter. In addition, we have leased the heated pool at Fairview Swim Club and have a limited number of memberships available for lap swimmers at UVA’s North Grounds pool. Please contact Kate Leslie at KLeslie@boarsheadresort.com to join the waitlist.
Feedback and Communications
We are committed to providing updates to our membership throughout the project. Thank you for your continued support of Boar’s Head Sports Club, and we hope you are as excited about the renovations to our aquatics center as we are to bring it to you.
