Cardiff has produced a range of great athletes such as Gareth Bale, Craig Bellamy and Ryan Giggs and somewhere in Cardiff the next big sports star could be waiting to be found, all they would need is some open playing spaces to train and find players.

One of Cardiff’s best venues is the Cardiff City House of Sport which has a large range of facilities providing a range of sports activities for everyone from corporate bookings to general use. Another key venue based in central Cardiff is the Sports Wales National Centre which houses the many Welsh sports governing bodies and is the training ground for professional athletes while still remaining open to the public, so you could be training next to an Olympic medalist or international player.
