Featuring a regulation size ice rink, a roller skating rink, a full-size pool, gymnasium, wellness center, pro-shop, walking track, lounge and more, the Woodbridge Community Center has become quite a popular place for residents since its opening in 2002.

The Club at Woodbridge, an extensive recreation center, is comprised of a highly-equipped 22,000-square-foot fitness center, sizable studios for group exercise classes, four tennis courts, nine racquetball courts, an indoor pool and even offers space for its physical therapy/sports rehabilitation program.
In addition to these facilities there are a number of sports leagues, including baseball, softball, soccer, football, wrestling and cheerleading for area youth and softball, bowling and golf for adults. Residents can also fish and boat at the Waterfront through its boat launch or its marina with 27 boat slips.
