The Brand New Aberfan 3G Pitch is Officially Open
Game On At Aberfan Community Centre!
The wait is finally over for the Aberfan sporting community! We are absolutely buzzing to announce that the outdoor 3G pitch at Aberfan Community Centre has been fully refurbished and is now open for bookings.
Whether you’re a local club looking for a reliable training ground or a group of mates wanting a high-quality space for a weekly 7-a-side football game, this facility is designed for you.
This isn’t just any pitch. Thanks to the support of Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council and Sport Wales Capital funding, the site has undergone a total transformation. We’ve installed a top-quality sand-based 3G surface that offers the perfect balance of durability and professional-grade playability.
What You Can Expect:

Perfect for 7-a-Side & Team Training
Specifically designed for 7-a-side needs, the pitch provides ample space for tactical drills, fitness sessions, or competitive small-sided matches. It’s a fantastic asset for grassroots football in the South Wales valleys, and we can’t wait to see it full of life again.
How to Secure Your Slot
We’ve made booking your next game as simple as a tap on your phone. We are now taking bookings via the PlayFootball platform.
Don’t miss out on the chance to be among the first to play on this pristine new surface. Whether it’s a one-off kickabout or a regular block booking for your club, the Aberfan 3G pitch is ready for kick-off!
