Centre sportif ÉTS

Centre sportif ETS is the athletic center of the Ecole de technologie superieure, a university in downtown Montreal on Rue Notre-Dame Ouest. While it's primarily a university facility, it offers some public access programming that can work for families with older kids and teens.

The center has a well-equipped gym with modern cardio and weight equipment, a gymnasium for basketball and indoor sports, and multi-purpose rooms. The 4.6 rating from 274 reviews reflects a well-maintained facility that takes its athletic programming seriously.

This is best suited for teens who are interested in fitness and sports. Younger children won't find much here since the facility is designed for adult-level athletics. But for a 12-17 year old who wants to work out or play basketball in a quality facility, it's a solid option.

Public access hours and policies may vary depending on the university schedule. During the academic year, the center is busiest with students. Summer months and university breaks offer more availability for community users. Always check the current public access schedule before visiting.

The facility is near the Lucien-L'Allier metro station and Gare Centrale. Parking is available in the ETS campus lot. The surrounding Griffintown/old Montreal area has plenty of food options for after a workout.
