Georgios Kalafatis Sports Center is the training ground and academy base of the Greek football club Panathinaikos since 2013.

In 2013, Giannis Alafouzos, president of Panathinaikos FC, decided the move of the club from the previous training center of Paiania to a new one, owned by the team. The ground was bought by the previous owner, Panionios F.C., and was named "Georgios Kalafatis" in honour of the founder of Panathinaikos.^[1][2]

Since then, it has been a gradual upgrade of the facilities.
