[edit] Training Ground
The Centro de Treinos e Formação Desportiva PortoGaia is a face of a new reality for F.C. Porto. Located at Olival and Crestuma, in Vila Nova de Gaia, this infrastructure it’s a symbol of functionality and modernity.
This project, signed by the architect Alcino Soutinho, that saw its opening in the summer of 2002, put FC Porto in vanguard of athlete formation and in the front line of professional training. The football teams base their weekly practice in one of the five training grounds of this centre.
The main features of Centro de Treinos e Formação Desportiva PortoGaia can be found in its five training grounds (four with natural grass and one with synthetic grass), in the dressing rooms, in the technical and medic working fields for all the teams, in the training ground with a capacity for three thousand spectators, in its gymnasium and in the Press Centre.

[edit] Mini Stadium
One of the five training grounds is actually a mini stadium with natural grass.
The 3,000 capacity stadium is home to FC Porto youth teams for the official competitions, and sometimes hosts friendly matches of the senior team. Last season the Under-19, Under-17 and Under-15 teams won their national championships.
