Overview

Funding

The Centre départementale de formation et d'animation sportive (CDFA) contains 17,400 m² (187,000 sq ft) of building[2] built on 7 hectares (17 acres) of green space for a total cost of 178 million francs (land 25 million, 144 million for work and building studies, equipment 9 million). The funding came from:

• General Council of the Val-d'Oise 148 million francs (83%);
• Regional Council of Ile-de-France: CHF 30 million (17%).

Description

The CDFA was constructed in two stages in the first half of the 1990s. Buildings constructed in 1993 are:

• the Jean Bouvelle House in which are the offices of sports departmental committees, those of the Olympic and Sport departmental committee (CDOS) and a conference room in three modular classrooms

• the sports complex includes a sports hall 2,600 m² (28,000 sq ft) dedicated to Luc Abalo with stands and a climbing wall,[2] another 1,000 m² (11,000 sq ft) is for a specialized gymnastics room, a weight room, a boxing ring, a dojo of 655 m² (7,050 sq ft), a classroom and a meeting room.

The second phase of construction was completed in late 1995. It consists of:

• the indoor stadium of athletics[2] (3,000 m² or 32,000 sq ft track space) dedicated to Stéphane Diagana with its annexes (a warm room of 600 m² (6,500 sq ft), a press room, forums, ...) with a total area of 5,000 m² (54,000 sq ft);

• the visitor center[2] including administrative offices, boarding, space and catering kitchen, classrooms and meetings and local sports medicine with sauna.
• outdoor sports facilities: fields for rugby, American Football, fields for lancers, for tennis and indoor parking.
