Tajonar Facilities

The Tajonar Facilities (Spanish: Instalaciones de Tajonar), is the training ground of the Spanish football club CA Osasuna. Located at the southern outskirts of Pamplona, the centre was opened in July 1982 by then-club president Fermín Ezcurra. The club's women's teams and youth sides also play at the facility, with the Tajonar name used as a metonym to refer to the academy system.[1] Since its opening in 1982, the Tajonar Soccer School has been preparing young football players here.[2]
