This £4.7 million development has been funded by Sport England/Big Lottery, the Football Foundation, FIFA, Salford City Council, FA, New Deal for Communities, European Regional Development Fund and Neighbourhood Renewal Fund. It is managed by Salford Community Leisure Limited and is also the new home of the Manchester FA.
Fantastic on the outside – even better on the inside!
The building has excellent changing accommodation perfect for even the muddiest of teams. There is a community room with optional bar area available for corporate hire and bookings in conjunction with sporting activities. There are also a number of additional areas available for meetings, activity sessions and courses.
For those wanting to develop their mind as well as their body, there is an Information Communication Technology (ICT) suite located on the first floor of the building. It has over 20 computers and is equipped with adaptive hardware and software to assist individuals with visual impairments and disabilities. A variety of courses will be run by Eccles College within the ICT suite ranging from IT for beginners to advice on creating healthy diet plans.
Pitches
The facility boasts several grass football pitches, two 3rd generation synthetic pitches and a grass practice area. The pitches are floodlit and provide outdoor use in all weathers.
As well as offering the opportunity to hire the pitch privately, Salford Community Leisure and the Manchester FA will be providing organised coaching sessions and coaching courses. These sessions are designed to cater for all ages and abilities and offer the highest standard of instruction.
