Abu Dhabi Cricket & Sports Hub (ADCSH) has unveiled ‘Sports Hub Cares,’ a bold new community initiative designed to make sport accessible to all by opening its world-class facilities free of charge for all during specific hours.
The six-week programme, running until May 31, 2026, marks a major step forward in ADCSH’s refreshed 2026 community strategy, placing accessibility, participation, and wellbeing at the heart of its offering.
Under a single, unifying umbrella, ‘Sports Hub Cares’ brings together a wide range of programmes and partnerships aimed at delivering meaningful, long-term impact across Abu Dhabi’s diverse population.
Phase 1 of the initiative, which runs until April 29, invites individuals and families to enjoy complimentary access to a variety of premium sporting facilities, removing traditional barriers to participation and encouraging more active, connected lifestyles.
• Complimentary swim sessions daily from 9 am - 12 noon
• Complimentary padel sessions on weekdays from 9 am - 12 noon, with rental rackets available
• Complimentary tennis sessions on weekdays from 9 am - 12 noon
• Complimentary squash sessions on weekdays from 9 am - 12 noon
• Complimentary weekend junior and senior cricket sessions from 9:30 am - 10:30 am, every Saturday, in partnership with Zayed Cricket Academy and led by an ICC-accredited coach.
As part of ‘Sports Hub Cares’, ADCSH will host the 2026 Playfest Carnival on Friday, April 24, at the iconic Zayed Cricket Stadium - a one-day, multi-sport junior community event for children aged 4-11, bringing together participants from across the emirate.
