Welcome to your COMMUNITY centre

At the heart of our community

Blackrod Sports and Community Centre is a welcoming and inclusive community hub bringing people together through sport, physical activity, wellbeing, creativity, learning and community support.

Open seven days a week, we provide activities, facilities and opportunities for children, young people, families, adults and older people from Blackrod and surrounding communities.
From fitness and football to arts, cooking, children’s activities, social groups and practical community support, there is something for everyone.

Thanks to the support of our funders and partners, many of our activities and community programmes are available completely free of charge.

Our Facilities

A community space for Blackrod

Our Centre provides flexible indoor and outdoor facilities for community activities, sport, meetings, classes, training, events and celebrations.

Facilities include a large main hall with a full sized stage, kitchen facilities, meeting and activity spaces, a full sized grass football and sports pitch and a large onsite car park.

We are also developing an additional grass pitch to increase opportunities for football, training and community sport.

Our facilities are used throughout the week by community organisations, sports clubs, activity providers and local residents.

Making a Difference
Blackrod Sports and Community Centre is a registered charity established to protect, develop and operate community facilities for the benefit of local people.

Since local residents came together to help secure the future of the Centre, we have continued to expand our activities, improve our facilities and develop new partnerships.
Today, the Centre brings together sport, wellbeing, creativity, learning, social connection and practical community support in one welcoming local space.

We work to make opportunities accessible to everyone, particularly people who may experience financial, health, social or other barriers to participation.

Blackrod Sports and Community Centre sits at the centre of the Blackrod village and offers a fantastic resource and meeting space for residents both local and further afield.
