The facility first opened in 2006 in partnership with Dromara Community Assocation, Dromara Primary School and the local council authority. It is regularly used by a variety of sporting clubs, groups and children for sports and leisure activities.
Recently, it was closed to enable essential resurfacing work to take place. Attending the re-opening was the Chairman of the Council's Leisure and Community Services Committee, Councillor Tim Morrow, and the Mayor, Councillor Brian Bloomfield MBE.

Councillor Morrow said: "I'm delighted to see the pitch's resurfacing work completed and ready for use. The previous surface had simply been worn away over the years and required to be replaced. With the work now completed it will be good to see people of all ages, all backgrounds and all abilities using the MUGA again.
"A shared space like this is more than a place to play football, basketball or whatever the sporting choice is. It's a place where people come together, keep fit, form friendships and it's a great starting place to learn about teamwork, sharing and the rules of a sport for our younger users."
