We believe in the power of play.
The NAV is a private sports and recreation facility in Southern Pines, North Carolina. Our amenities are spread out over 70 acres and include sports fields, hiking trails, games, and so much more.

Field Rentals
We have several fields available for rentals and can accommodate many different sports, whether you’re a small team or a larger athletics organization.

Private Events
With activities suitable for kids and adults of all ages and activity levels, the NAV is the perfect place to host private events like company picnics, team-building exercises, birthday parties and more.

Family Fun
Go hiking, check out the bike ramps with your kids, or sit back and relax at ‘the beach’ while your children play in the sand. Members at the NAV have access to all of our amenities!
Our Mission
At the National Athletic Village, we believe in the importance of leading an active life. In 2016, Leigh Bortins founded the National Athletic Village to encourage friends and family to play more.
What is the NAV?
The National Athletic Village offers 11 different stations spread out over more than 70 acres. Each station features unique activities that provide fun and exhilarating ways to keep everyone in your family active and engaged, no matter your fitness level.
Access to our entire facility is included with your NAV membership, though many stations require reservations to guarantee your ability to play.
