Facility

“In 2012/13, Sport Wales awarded a Development Grant of £50,000 to establish a ball sport hall at Cardiff City House of Sport Ltd based in Leckwith, Cardiff.

House of Sport, although linked to Cardiff City FC, is intended to engage with several sports, not just football, to also include basketball, futsal, netball, korfball, wheelchair rugby and wheelchair basketball to name a few. The project overall has been a huge success with increased participation in all sports catered for and a particular increase in basketball and women’s football. The project also has good engagement with BME groups and continues to go from strength to strength.

Cardiff City House of Sport Ltd presented a considered and inclusive approach to the project which allowed greater participation in a range of sports whilst also engaging groups from the community who previously wouldn’t have had the opportunity to use facilities such as this.

House of Sport has clearly demonstrated its ability to plan, produce and deliver on proposed project outcomes and outputs.”

“Cardiff City House of Sport has long been the number one choice for Footbubble as it provides a high quality facility for us to provide bubble football (zorb football). The state of the art training facility boasts an indoor FIFA approved 3G pitch which caters for our needs whatever the weather. House of Sport also has an indoor multi-sport court which also allows us to run our events.

Cardiff House of Sport has remained our number one choice not only because of the quality facility but also the dedicated staff who have been very helpful and supportive to our newly formed company. The staff have always provided us with an exceptional level of customer care and we’ve been impressed with the friendliness and responsiveness of staff. We’d go as far as saying that they set a benchmark in customer support, which other sports venues could learn a lot from. We’re always met with enthusiasm and professionalism when working with Cardiff House of sport.

Being located very close to the city centre allows for our participants to travel to and locate the venue easily, especially as it’s right next to the Cardiff City Stadium.”

“Cardiff City House of Sport is a fantastic venue and has been very important in the growth of futsal. It possess’ great facilities, a high quality playing surface and is a great indoor environment for players and spectators to enjoy. It has hosted events from grassroots to UEFA competitions and will be an important venue in the development of the game for years to come.”

“I have great pleasure in recommending Cardiff City House of Sport.

The Wales Veterans Football representative teams have found the facility ideal for our get togethers before international matches. The staff are very friendly and helpful and because of the excellent surface we have been able to prepare our teams to meet the high standard expected of them.

We would certainly hope to make full use of the facility in future.”

“The Dragons have made full use of the tremendous facilities that House of Sport provides. The 3G training facility with its state of the art quality surface makes training a pleasure for the players. We fully endorse what they’re providing through their excellent facilities and staff, their professional manner is second to none. We fully intend to continue our partnership.”
