FOOTBALL fans can now enjoy a kick-about on Saddleworth Pool and Leisure Centre’s new synthetic pitches.

A trio of pitches can accommodate five-a-side and seven-a-side games and are part of the £1.5 million investment in the Station Road facility, which includes a state-of- the-art-gym, dance studio and changing rooms. Councillor John McCann officially opened the facilities.
