United Sports is a 127,000 square-foot indoor, 72-acre outdoor sports complex located directly off the Route 30 Bypass in the heart of Chester County, PA. This privately-funded, over $15 million project transformed a historic, but long-neglected, airport into a major center for recreation and field access. United Sports is located in Downingtown PA, a suburb just southwest of Philadelphia. In a time of rapid urban development, rather than building homes or additional corporate buildings, United Sports designed a complex that encompasses 11 outdoor, playing fields and 3 acres under roof with multiple playing surfaces for varying sport use.

United Sports provides an opportunity for your child to participate in sports in a safe environment. Without these additional fields and programs, registrations for youth leagues would be limited due to a lack of field space. On a regular basis, United Sports attracts participants and spectators from a 60-mile to 60-minute radius. Centrally located, United Sports is convenient to people from nearby, neighboring states (Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey).

A premier facility, United Sports has become the central hub for regional tournaments, team training, and excellent programming. United Sports has programs for all ages (youth-adult) and all skill levels. We offer comprehensive Clinics, Summer & Winter Camps, Tournaments, Leagues and Instructional Academies.
