CHADDERTON Park FC has scored a £52,560 grant to upgrade its pitches in a £5.77m handout by the Premier League and FA Facilities Fund.
The work will see improvements to the drainage system and pitch levelling for the club’s youngest teams. Work will start in August.
Chadderton Park chairman Frank Nolan is hopeful the funding will strengthen connections between the club and the local community: “We are hoping this will help us to become a first-class venue and provide the best standard of pitches for the children.”
The club has been recognised for its work in the community and has recently started training sessions for children with cerebral palsy — the only such programme in Greater Manchester.
