Welcome to Amman Valley Trotting Club

Background of the Club

The Club is a not-for-profit Company Limited by Guarantee (Company Number 5310934). The Club has open membership and reinvests all surpluses generated back into the site and surrounding community.  Amman Valley Trotting Club is a community enterprise established in 1979 originally to organise harness racing for local enthusiasts on a site built on levelled-out former coal spoil tip long-leased from the local authority, Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council.
Over the years the Club has tried to respond to local demand both for community events and additional sporting activities at the site. So, although the volunteer club members and other event volunteers from surrounding communities continue to provide a full calendar of harness-racing events as the core activity, increasingly the Club have taken the lead in organising and providing for the local community and visitors alike.

In 2022 we opened our Community cafe, Cafe@thetrack, it is open on Thursday, Friday and Saturdays 9am – 2pm and on Race days.
