In the heart of Maadi, spanning an area of over 56,000 square meters, stands the Olympic Center, a testament to a pioneering sporting vision that began to take shape in 1987, when this land was on the outskirts of Cairo. Today, after becoming central to the capital, the center continues to fulfill its role as an integrated sports institution. Officially opened in 1990, it recently underwent extensive development work costing 300 million Egyptian pounds.
The center includes a luxurious six-story hotel with 155 rooms, equipped to the highest engineering standards by leading consulting firms in Egypt. In the center's outer courtyard, a dazzling fountain designed in the shape of the Olympic logo adds a distinctive artistic touch to the overall scene. Regarding the sports infrastructure, the center features a standard football field and an athletics track, making it an ideal environment for training and official competitions.

The center houses two large sports hall complexes:
- The first complex includes multiple specialized halls for:
- weightlifting, gymnastics, boxing, wrestling, table tennis, fencing, kung fu, karate, shooting, rowing, and fitness, reflecting the diversity and integration of the training infrastructure. - - The second complex includes halls dedicated to handball, volleyball, basketball, taekwondo, in addition to a fitness hall, enhancing the center's capabilities in hosting advanced training camps and preparing athletes to a professional level.
Integrated Service Facilities
The center has not overlooked the service facilities befitting athletes and visitors, as it includes a conference hall, a lecture hall, a dining hall that can accommodate up to 400 people, and a VIP lounge, adding an administrative and organizational dimension to training operations and events. Thanks to this integrated infrastructure, the Olympic Center in Maadi remains a unique model for sports training centers in Egypt and the region, combining advanced infrastructure, technical expertise, and high-end services to truly be a launching platform for champions towards global excellence.
