By Johann Arnason Updated: May 22, 2015

Panathinaikos Soccer Schools is proud to announce a groundbreaking venture; the future Lamborghini Athletic Centre will be located in historic downtown St. Charles, MO. Our 15 year agreement allows for construction to commence this summer with a grand opening in August 2015!

The Lamborghini Athletic Centre will feature almost 60,000 sq. feet of indoor training space, including synthetic turf and an acrylic sports surface (futsal, volleyball, basketball). The facility will host all PAO training needs, from club training to team training and everything in between. PAO will now control its own destiny to ensure our members will receive uninterrupted top-notch professional European/UEFA training, from the Panathinaikos FC official curriculum. Other features of the facility will include: a European café, concessions, Wi-Fi internet, indoor seating, outdoor patio with fire pits, multiple big screen TV’s and much more.

Located only 6.5 miles from our current training facility, the Lamborghini Athletic Center borders the Katy trail and is a few blocks from multiple shops and restaurants along historic Main Street in St. Charles, MO. The Lamborghini Athletic Centre will not only focus on PAO soccer, but various other sports and events such as: futsal, basketball, volleyball, baseball, softball and lacrosse. We will also be developing the 3.5 acres on the outside of the facility into lighted bermuda grass and synthetic turf fields for training and games.

“We are beyond excited to offer this complete training centre to our members. We no longer have to relay on mother nature to determine if we will train or not. We have been working on a project of this magnitude for several years and it has finally become a reality, thanks to the support of our PAO families and the Karidis Group International”, said Aaron Wagner, PAO VP & COO.

Lamborghini Athletic Centre Layout: 37,000 sq. ft. synthetic turf, 23,000 sq. ft. acrylic sports surface, (2) 6v6 indoor no-wall soccer fields, (6) turf training zones, (2) FIFA regulation futsal courts and/or (2) regulation size basketball courts, (6) volleyball courts.
