Lion City Sailors Integrated Facility is Lion City Sailors’ (LCS) new state-of-the-art training facility that will be home to both the Sailors and the LCS Football Academy. Construction on the proposed facility at 8 Mattar Road, which currently houses the Academy, is projected to be completed in April 2022.

The facility will, when completed, become Singapore’s first fully-integrated football training centre. LCS has committed to invest more than $10 million in this centre, underlining its drive for excellence and support for the development of football in Singapore. It will feature five pitches - two 11-a-side and three 7-a-side fields - changing rooms, a gym, and will include facilities for sports science and medicine, video analytics, as well as study rooms for Academy scholars in the Elite Development Programme. 

The training centre is a key facet of the Sailors’ drive for excellence in the Singapore Premier League (SPL) and the region. It will also facilitate the establishment of a pipeline of young footballers for the Singapore football fraternity as it aims to boost youth development as part of the national project: “Unleash the Roar!”. In addition to facilities that cater to the Sailors’ professional team and its Academy, the proposed facility will include a viewing area for the public, a café, as well as community-friendly spaces where grassroots activities for residents, such as health screenings, community talks, and exercises classes can be held. These additional features come as part of the facility’s secondary goal to serve and support the residents in the community, with the aim of bringing greater vibrancy and cohesiveness to Mattar Road as an inclusive sports hub in the neighbourhood.
