An Amateur football team, Craigneuk Amateurs, formed in May 1995 by local Men Francis McCafferty and Scott Isaac. A new bike track was opened in 2018 near the grounds of the former St Matthews Primary school, aimed at children and teenagers interested in cycling and mountain biking. This pumptrack was designed and built by Velosolutions, leaders in the industry, and is now managed by a local enterprise called Socialtrack. Construction was managed by Central Scotland Green Network Trust on behalf of North Lanarkshire Council. The track has been so successful in supporting community regeneration amongst the young that the frequent incidents of anti-social behaviour on what was an abandoned area of land have stopped. Socialtrack announced it as the venue for the UK round of the 2019 Red Bull Pumptrack World Championships - a remarkable achievement for them and the community in so short a time.
