Local young people to represent Cardiff City FC Community Foundation in Premier League Kicks Cup
15 Chwefror 2023
Cardiff City FC and Cardiff City FC Foundation have received the 'Centre of Excellence' award from Level Playing Field - a charity that champions equality for disabled sports fans across the U.K.
The Bluebirds are just one of six clubs across the EFL to receive the award, which recognises the accessible services and facilities available to fans with a disability who attend fixtures at Cardiff City Stadium.
CCS sits alongside Wembley Stadium, The Etihad Stadium (Manchester City FC), Pride Park (Derby County FC), The American Express Community Stadium (Brighton & Hove Albion FC) and The Emirates Stadium (Arsenal FC) as the only football grounds to have reached this standard.
Watch how the Cardiff City Sensory Room has been supporting children like Harry visit Cardiff City Stadium to watch his heroes.

“The EFL congratulates Cardiff City for receiving Level Playing Field’s prestigious Centre of Excellence Award, which is recognition for the high access and inclusion standards that have been embedded across the Club.
“A key aim of our Together EDI strategy mission is for EFL Clubs to provide a best-in-class provision for inclusive and welcoming opportunities in football, and Cardiff City’s provision for disabled supporters is an outstanding representation of the progress that is being made across the EFL, offering good practice examples from which others will benefit.”
