The site is due to shut its doors in July as the company that runs it says it is no longer viable.
Robyn Morrison runs a popular cheerleading group at Kettering Conference Centre and said there was not a similar facility availableGroups that use a leisure complex which is set to close said they hoped it could be saved.
Robyn Morrison, who runs a cheerleading academy at the centre, said: "There is no way this place can be left empty."An online petition started last month to save the centre has had more than 14,000 signatures. The club, TCA Cheer and Tumble, has 65 members from the age of four upwards and works with primary schools in the local area.The 32-year-old said the group needed "somebody to step forward" to run the centre and was "holding on to hope" it would happen.
"The options were slim because of how fantastic this facility is and how much we need this facility," she said.Beryl Goodall said the centre was ideally located for the member of the over-50s group"There is nowhere else that can do this. People come for their health and welfare and their own mental welfare," she said.Ms Goodall, 81, said: "Here we are with this really nice building and now they're planning on closing it, it's just a tragedy for Kettering.
