There are coin return lockers in each of the large rooms for personal belongings.
The NSC has recently added the new Bowl 3000 seat fully floodlit stadium to its facilities, with a Lano Sports Rugby MXSi20 65 IS 25 synthetic pitch. This is a 65mm synthetic surface with a rubber infill approved for rugby and football use. The stadium has a full size football pitch with goals, 2 junior football pitches with goals as well as 2 team dugouts. Toilets and changing rooms are provided within the facility.
Completing the outdoor facilities is an 800m fully lit tarmac raceway, which forms the perimeter of the outdoor provision and provides a competition and training facility for cycling criterium racing, race walkers and road runners
