Sports facility
The training and competition site of the athletics department of the ASC Düsseldorf is the Arena-Sportpark Düsseldorf. There you will find optimal conditions. In summer, the athletes train on the side arena, which consists of a 400-meter circular track. There are also several long jump, two high jump and one pole vault facilities. The club's indoor school sports festival, which attracts athletes from all over the surrounding area and the Netherlands, is held there every year.
In winter, the training groups move to the neighboring athletics hall, which was built in 1977 for the athletics world cup in the Rheinstadion . The hall, which was rebuilt in 2004, is the largest in Düsseldorf. It is one of the most modern athletics halls in Germany. It is equipped with a grandstand that can seat 2000 spectators.
The other departments use some of the many sports halls in the city of Düsseldorf. The running club can usually be found on the Rhine.
