Training Facilities

The Deeside stadium offers a range of both indoor and outdoor athletics facilities. Outdoors, this includes an international standard 8 lane all-weather track and field event facilities. There is also a covered grandstand and full changing facilities.

Floodlighting is used during the dark winter months to ensure health and safety of our athletes. Indoors, we have a 6 lane 60m track and all field event training facilities.
