House of Sport ready for action
Last updated : 17 November 2010 By Michael Morris
The House of Sport opened last week with the Cardiff City Academy lads testing the facilities.
It is situated on land behind the family stand and opens to the public later this month.
Speaking last month Steve Borley, who's CMB company has built the House of Sport, said,
"It's been a huge effort. Many people have worked hard to get us this far and we have had a lot of help from companies in and around the Cardiff area.
"The House of Sport is crucial to Cardiff City's youth academy, but it also means a lot to many other people. The new facility will be used by Cardiff City's Football in the Community programme, while Sport Cardiff will help us develop programmes for the community. Cardiff City Ladies, too, are looking to come on board.
"This is not an indoor five-a-side facility, it is a coaching academy to be used by people from all areas of our community. We are working closely with Cardiff council."
