Great Grass Pitch Improvements at Clegwell

Clegwell & Hartleyburn Community Hub's playing pitch stock has significantly improved its pitch quality.

Great Grass Pitch Improvements at Clegwell!

As  part of the FA's commitment to improve 20,000 grass pitches nationwide, Clegwell & Hartleyburn Community Hub's playing pitch stock has significantly improved its pitch quality as well as adding another  2 grass pitches to its playing pitch stock.

Before and after photos show the quality  of the work that has been carried out. This is partly thanks to the Football Foundation's Grass Pitch Maintenance Fund. This fund contains a tapered grant over 6 years to bring all of the 7 grass pitches at the site to a Pitch  Quality Standard of 'good' or 'higher'.

If you are a club, league or a charitable organisation that has the legal responsibility of  maintaining your grass pitches, contact Chris.Hutchinson@DurhamFA.com if you would like to  know more about this funding opportunity. (If you believe you  could  obtain permission to enhance the quality  of your pitches from the  land owner contact Chris on the  e-mail given)
