Facility

“House of Sport is an excellent venue offering great all weather pitch facilities, including a modernised waiting area and refreshments to ensure a good family environment that is ideal to our needs at grass roots football. Ourselves at Ely Rangers FC never hesitate to take up the opportunity to utilise the facility as it truly caters for every need we could ask for whether it be a structured training session or friendly match. We cannot speak highly enough of the place or the staff so would recommend to all!”

“South Wales Police FC are participating at the World Police and Fire Games which takes place in New York from 26th August 2011. We’ve been extremely privileged to have had the opportunity to prepare using the excellent facilities at the Cardiff City House of Sport. We can wholeheartedly endorse the facility and unreservedly recommend their use. We look forward to returning during the forthcoming season.”

“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.”

“To have access to an unrivalled multi-sport facility like House of Sport is invaluable to our learners. We’re able to offer a wide range of sporting education opportunities in an inspirational environment whilst also providing world-class training facilities for our teams and sports academy students.”

“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.”
