Description

Less than a 10 minute-drive from Toulouse/Blagnac international airport, the two sports centres, Naudin and Andromède, offer two complementary facilities adapted to competitive sports. Naudin hosts 8 specific halls, each one configured for top-level sports (gymnastics, boxing, weight training, parkour, shooting, archery, table tennis, trinquet), as well as 1 outdoor archery pitch, 3 padel courts and an open-air single walled fronton. Andromède boasts 5 football pitches, including a 500-seat stadium and a synthetic pitch, 1 athletics stadium with 150 seats, 1 rugby field, a multi-sport gymnasium and a dojo. Less than 1,000 feet apart, it just takes over 5 minutes to walk from one place to the other. These top-level sports facilities are also located on the banks of the river Garonne, allowing for immediate immersion in the natural surroundings and a quick access to the walking, running or mountain bike trails along the Garonne.

Special features

Between the city and the countryside, the location of these two sports centres is really appealing to anyone who wants to train there. Another asset is the complementary nature of the facilities, halls and annexes, as well as their proximity to all the shops, services and accommodation available in Blagnac. Thanks to its central public kitchen, the city of Blagnac also offers specific meals on site, which can be adapted to the delegations’ needs. Both facilities have a caretaker on site, allowing for great responsiveness should a problem arise and the users’ daily requests to be met.
