This is the Local Football Facility Plan (LFFP) for Calderdale. It was prepared by Knight, Kavanagh and Page (KKP) with support from local partners, including:
Every local area in the Country will have a LFFP to enable investment in football facilities to be accurately targeted.
The Football Association, the Premier League and Sport England (on behalf of Government). This partnership finances the National Football Facility Strategy (NFFS) and commissions the Football Foundation to deliver it.
The national funding partners have significantly increased investment to accelerate efforts to deliver more and better football facilities for the grassroots game. The purpose of this plan is to identify the priority projects for potential investment in Calderdale.
As the nation’s most popular team sport, football has the power to contribute positively to vital social outcomes and health priorities. To maximise this power, facilities have to be welcoming environments to attract first-time users and repeat visits, whether for informal, recreational or competitive football.
Research clearly and continually demonstrates the positive impact high-quality football facilities, in the right locations, can have on participation and enjoyment. Latent demand exists, but facility quantity and quality has to ‘step up’ if football is to reach out to everyone.
£1.3billion has been spent by football and Government since 2000 to enhance existing football facilities and build new ones. However, more is needed if football and Government’s shared objectives for participation, individual well-being and community cohesion are to be achieved.
Nationally, direct investment will be increased – initially to £69 million per annum from football and Government (a 15% increase on recent years). Locally, the work has already started* - this LFFP will guide the allocation of 90% of national funds and forge stronger partnerships with local stakeholders to develop key sites. This, together with local match-funding will deliver over one billion pounds of investment into football facilities over the next 10-years.
This LFFP, with guidance from local partners, has developed a list of high level projects for potential investment. Each is aligned to the investment priorities set out in the National Football Facilities Strategy, which include:
The priority projects for potential investment identified in this plan will help develop a sustainable network of quality facilities to drive participation across all parts of the game. Central to this are five key success factors: quality, inclusivity, sustainability, engagement and usage. Each identified project takes account of these factors.
This LFFP will, in effect, be the go-to document for football facility investment in Calderdale.
Whilst it identifies priority projects for potential investment, it does not guarantee the success of future funding applications. Each project must still follow an application process to show how it will deliver key participation outcomes, become a quality & sustainable facility and demonstrate suitable match-funding.
When each project is in a position to proceed, the Football Foundation will determine a suitable timeframe to submit a grant application and pre-application support will be provided by West Riding County FA and the Football Foundation.
A LFFP is an investment portfolio of priority projects for potential investment - it is not a detailed demand and supply analysis of all pitch provision in a local area. It cannot be used as a replacement for a Playing Pitch Strategy (PPS) and it will not be accepted as an evidence base for site change of use or disposal.
A LFFP will however build on available/existing local evidence and strategic plans and may adopt relevant actions from a PPS and/or complement these with additional investment priorities.

Calderdale is in the Yorkshire and The Humber region. The current population of the Authority (ONS 2017 Mid-Year Estimate) is 209,454. This is expected to rise to 221,524 by 2039.
33.3% of the Calderdale population is within NS SEC classification 6-8 (lower socio-economic groups). This is higher than the national average (30.6%).
Calderdale’s ethnic composition is primarily White (89.7%) and this is higher than the national average (85.4%).
The proportion of Calderdale’s population represented by the BAME community is 10.3%. This is below the national average (14.6%).
Calderdale is a large local authority consisting of both urban and rural areas; made up of numerous towns and villages, including Halifax, Elland, Brighouse, Todmorden and Hebden Bridge.
Calderdale’s Physical Activity Strategy (2017) sets out a vision for ‘Calderdale to be the most active borough in the North of England by 2024’. Achievement of this will be driven via three modes of delivery: active communities, active sport and active parks open spaces and environments. Some of the key principles of this strategy include: locally led and evidence based decision making, open transparent and inclusive to all, the ambition to empower, enable and support communities and individuals to be more active and to create sustainable programmes that lead to long term health changes.
The Authority’s Playing Pitch Strategy was produced in 2017. The key findings from the associated needs assessment include current and future capacity shortfalls for grass pitch sites. Existing changing pavilion stock is also considered to be poor at several key sites. Due to the topography of the area, finding suitable sites for 3G FTPs presents a challenge; there is a current shortfall of six full size 3G FTPs.
Calderdale is covered by West Riding County FA. It provides governance and development support to all aspects of local football including coaches, referees, volunteers, clubs and leagues; supporting football for all. The County FA has a designated facilities investment lead officer who works to ensure the right facilities are located in the right locations.
The Regional Engagement Manager and Regional Technical Project Manager at the Football Foundation work collaboratively with the County FA to provide pre-application support to priority projects for potential investment.
See Football foundation website for more info (http://www.footballfoundation.org.uk/impact/where-our-money-goes)
Has a network of planning managers who have a statutory role in the planning system to protect playing fields and provide consultation responses to planning applications relating to sporting facilities . They also play a key role in strategic planning for sports facilities, providing advice and support to local authorities to assess need for facilities in their local area.
These continue to expand and enhance their range of community delivery, offering a variety of programmes and services to support local communities (sporting and non-sporting). The Halifax FC Community Group runs a variety of health, education, engagement, football and sporting activities within the local area.
Calderdale Council runs its leisure facilities on an in house basis. It currently operates five key sites including swimming pools and leisure centres with gym facilities and sports halls.
This has taken place with a broad and diverse set of community groups in Calderdale. A total of 25 individuals (representing 10 local organisations) were consulted. These include:
(See Appendix B for full list of consultees)
There are over 91,000 community football teams in England, spread over an expansive network of clubs and leagues. Calderdale has a total of 367 teams, which is comparable to local areas of a similar size.
The FA is investing to support clubs both on and off the pitch which includes an aim to have a qualified FA coach with every youth team by 2020/21. In addition, it will support 1,000 clubs to create full player pathways from youth to adult teams and develop 150 community football hubs with male and female pathways, disability and recreational playing opportunities.
Over the last ten years there has been a significant national increase in the number of large multi-team football clubs. In Calderdale, 13 clubs have more than ten registered teams. The largest of these (based upon 2017-18 affiliation data) are:
The FA Whole Game System- season 2017/18
Two leagues operate in Calderdale. They offer competitive opportunities for male adults. While there are no specific league opportunities for Junior Football within Calderdale, there is however suitable provision provided in neighbouring Huddersfield and Craven.
Calderdale’s largest local leagues (2017-18) include:
The County FA reports that there is significant cross boundary migration in Calderdale due to teams migrating outwards to the Huddersfield Junior League and the Craven, Aire & Wharfe Junior League as there is no junior league in Calderdale. In the Adult game there is no significant migration.
There are 9.4million people in England with a long-standing limiting disability, illness or condition which equates to 18% of the population – almost one in five. Football playing opportunities should be flexible, inclusive and accessible for everyone, whatever their level of ability. This could entail inclusion in mainstream activity or teams / sessions specifically for people with a disability.
In Calderdale there are nine football teams / sessions specifically for people with a disability. It is a priority of the County FA to grow this provision. For talented players the FA run Regional Centres and England national squads.
The FA has big ambitions for the female game and aims to double levels of participation by 2020. To achieve this requires a combined effort across four pathways: education, education, recreation, competition and talent.
Education environments have a huge impact on the first experience of football for young girls. This pathway can offer many opportunities for females of all ages to develop and grow a lifelong interest in football.
FA Wildcats girls football centres provide the first step on the recreational pathway, the programme provides girls aged 5-11 with regular opportunities to play football in a fun and engaging environment. Calderdale has 2 FA Wildcats girls football centres and the priority is to grow this activity.
At 23, Calderdale’s number of female teams is higher than local areas of a similar size. The County FA’s priority is to support existing clubs to grow and encourage more clubs to develop playing opportunities for females. The local girls league is the West Riding Girls League and matches are played on a home and away & central venue basis. The league is expected to grow its provision in future years. The local adult female league is the West Riding County Women’s League and matches are played on a home and away and the league is expected to sustain its provision in future years.
For talented players, the most local FA Regional Talent Club (RTC) is Manchester City which is located in Manchester. Higher level talent pathway opportunities are also provided regionally and nationally by the FA, culminating in the England Women’s national squads. The most local Women’s Super League team is Manchester City which provides player pathway opportunities for gifted and talented female players and a spectator interest for fans.
Many different types of small-sided football are played in England, from teams and leagues to recreational and informal. It is an established and important part of the modern game.
Small-sided teams & leagues are organised and competitive activities; typically with players registered to clubs and affiliated to leagues and their County FAs. Examples include Futsal and local small-sided leagues running at venues such as sports halls, 3G FTPs or small-sided 3G centres.
Key local providers include
Futsal is an exciting, fast-paced, small sided team game that is widely played across the world. Typically it’s played on an indoor surface with hockey-sized goals and a size four football with reduced ball bounce. It is the FA’s aim to ensure Futsal is available across the country.
There are currently no futsal teams in Calderdale. It is a priority for the County FA to grow Futsal for youth and adult players.
Recreational football is played where facilities are typically booked and there might be someone to help organise. Examples include FA Just Play sessions, walking football and casual pitch hire for small-sided match play.
There are currently no FA Just Play Centres in Calderdale. Walking football sessions are delivered by a range of community organisations such as Greetland Goldstars and Calderdale Coaching Community Trust. Walking football and Just Play are areas that the County FA has prioritised for further growth and development. Other local recreational football programmes include community sessions delivered by various voluntary sector organisations such as St Augustines Centre and the Himmat Project. The indoor football centre, 3Gi also hosts a large amount of recreational football.
Informal football is played in local parks and green spaces – it is free, open access and often played spontaneously (normal clothing is worn). Common examples include a kick-about at a local park or on a multi-use games area (MUGA).
Currently, informal football in Calderdale is played across the area with Savile Park being a key site and a location that is heavily used.
The key strengths of local football in Calderdale include Adult football provision on Saturdays and Sundays, along with footballing opportunities provided by a number of well established Junior Clubs. It is recommended that this is sustained and also encouraged to grow further. However, gaps in provision do exist and these include a lack of a local junior league and limited recreational football opportunities.
It is therefore recommended that the future football development priorities for Calderdale are:
The facilities required to assist this are now set out in the Assets and Opportunities section.
Additionally, each priority project that progresses to a funding application via the Football Foundation will produce a detailed ‘site development plan’ specifying all football development activity, usage and key partner engagement.

This section reviews existing football facility assets in Calderdale. It identifies current issues and presents opportunities for improvements, including a list of priority projects for potential investment.
Local assets and opportunities have been reviewed inline with four investment priorities:
To ensure a consistent and high quality approach, each local area has been reviewed applying a standard approach, supplemented by input from consultation with local partners and stakeholder organisations.
While each investment priority is reviewed individually, it is understood that they can be inter-reliant; account is, thus, taken of these potential connections.

3G FTPs are a high quality and indispensable part of modern football facilities; their impact cannot be underestimated. In recent years the industry has seen major innovations and improvements to artificial surfaces (and sports lighting). This has created playing surfaces that replicate a good standard natural turf pitch whilst significantly increasing levels of use (x20). All FTPs must have sports lighting to achieve this.
The high quality, consistent playing surface is the ideal environment to play the game and for young people to learn. With regular maintenance programmes, FTPs can be heavily used all year round with no decline in quality. They almost completely negate annoying fixture cancellations during winter months, helping football to be a key part of a regular physical activity habit.
High capacity levels offer a great opportunity to embrace all formats and engage all participants. A full-sized 3G caters for an average of 1,200 participants per week and is suitable for various location types. That means being fully inclusive to all sections of the community, with a particular focus on under-represented groups such as women and girls, people with a disability, BAME communities and people from lower socio-economic groups.
The way 3G FTPs are used is rapidly changing; current line-marking systems allow for match play across all formats of football (5v5, 7v7, 9v9 and 11v11). This enables significant levels of match-play to be transferred from grass to 3G.
The national ‘Mini Pitch’ programme delivers small 3G FTPs at primary school sites to provide a high quality introduction to football and get children more physically active. While mini pitches are reviewed in this section, they are not included in the demand and supply analysis for 3G FTPs.
FA data states that there are currently three full size 3G FTPs in Calderdale; this is a shortfall of six pitches relative to assessed demand.
Existing 3G FTPs in Calderdale include:
*Beech Hill School is not full size however, is well used for affiliated football training and has links with Warley Rangers, Halifax Sports Club and Calderdale Junior League. The FTP is also on the FA register for match play.
Additionally, there are currently two small-sided 3G FTP centres in Calderdale:
All three 3G FTPs are available for community use. All are on the FA Register for 3G FTPs (meaning they are quality checked and can be used for football match play).
The geographic spread of existing facilities is uneven; the majority are located in the Halifax area. There are provision gaps in the west (Todmorden) and south east (Elland and Brighouse areas) as well as additional need in the wider Halifax area; it is recommended that these are addressed.
Local consultation reveals common issues with a lack of availability in relation to training demand. A number of the larger clubs in Calderdale are unable to train on 3G FTPs or only able to train at undesirable times. The Football Foundation is funding the resurfacing of the existing sand based full sized AGP at Ryburn Valley School (PPS – Upper Valley Analysis Area). This project has been signed off and the work is due to commence in the next 12 months.
Seven priority projects for potential investment have been identified (including two either / or site options). Undersupply was calculated using the FA 3G FTP demand and supply model. Each site was endorsed by local partners based on a rationale of good access, high population, geographical spread, success and quality of existing facilities.
As noted earlier, due to the topography of Calderdale, flat land options are limited. With this in mind, a number of sites that can facilitate small sized 3G FTPs have been recommended. This is in order to help meet demand for training venues and to accommodate youth and mini match play. It is felt that the recommendations for smaller sized pitches will be adequate to cover training demand, whilst a number of either/or alternative sites have also been put forward and endorsed by consultees due to these aforementioned topographical difficulties.
1 - Brooksbank Academy (PPS - Lower Valley Analysis Area) – new floodlit 11v11 3G FTP
2 - Trinity Academy (PPS - Halifax North & East Analysis Area) - new floodlit 11v11 3G FTP to create a double pitch site
3 - Bellholme Sports (PPS – Upper Valley Analysis Area) – new floodlit 11v11 3G FTP (alternative option to Todmorden Sports Centre)
4 - Todmorden Sports Centre (Upper Valley Analysis Area) – new 9v9 floodlit 3G FTP (alternate option to Bellholme Sports)
5 - Calder High School (PPS – Upper Valley Analysis Area) – new 9v9 floodlit 3G FTP
6 - Lightcliffe Academy (PPS – Lower Valley Analysis Area) – new 11v11 full size 3G FTP to create a double pitch site
7 - Shay Stadium – new 7v7 floodlit 3G FTP (alternate option to North Bridge Leisure Centre)
8 - North Bridge Leisure Centre – resurfaced floodlit x2 5v5 3G FTP (alternate option to Shay Stadium)
9- Whitehill Academy (PPS – Halifax North & East Analysis Area) – new 7v7 floodlit 3G FTP

Playing fields are one of the most important resources for sport in England. All football players should have the opportunity to play on good quality grass pitches. However, FA data shows that 63% of pitches in England are poor / low standard and 1 in 6 games are cancelled. As such, poor pitch quality is consistently cited as the number one issue for players.
The priority is, therefore, to sustainably improve grass pitch quality across all main pitch owners (local authorities, education establishments and clubs). However, the level of maintenance required to obtain good quality standards is regularly affected by restricted budgets and limited knowledge/ training. Compaction and grass coverage are two key causes of poor quality pitches. Both are commonly treated via a maintenance driven solution (and do not necessarily require costly drainage schemes).
Playing fields are also valuable resources for informal play and open-access sites are encouraged but, for many, problems such as dog fouling and vandalism mean that they need to be protected with mitigation measures such as fencing.
In many local areas the key challenge is to create a sustainable approach to provide good quality football pitches for the long-term. Many local authorities (78%) intend to increase pitch hire fees in the future. However, many players (63%) believe facilities are already expensive and some (16%) believe prices are prohibitive. A sustainable solution should, therefore, carefully balance pitch quality and affordability.
While the education sector (37%) and local authorities (32%) are still the principal asset owners of grass pitches, clubs / leagues own or maintain an increasing share (currently 25%). Assets and opportunities have been considered across each sector.
Although large (3+ pitch) strategic sites are important and make up much of the project list within the LFFPs, this does not mean that other club, league and community/voluntary sites are not important or eligible for funding. These sites are key to the Football Foundation's Grass Pitch Programme to deliver 20,000 good quality pitches.

The PitchPower app is the gateway to any grass pitch improvement funding. It is the tool that will allow clubs and organisations to complete pitch inspections and access funds.
If you haven't signed up and completed a PitchPower pitch inspection, you will need to do this before you can apply for the Grass Pitch Maintenance Fund.

There are currently 14 grass pitch sites in Calderdale with three or more full-size pitch equivalents containing 71 grass pitches. All pitches are assessed to be of standard quality.
Local consultation shows common issues with pitch quality, and it is recommended that these are addressed.
11 priority projects for potential investment have been identified. Pitch quality ratings were evidenced by PPS / FA data and qualified by local partners. Due to the significant number of grass pitch sites in Calderdale local partners did not select all sites and prioritised only ten, containing 34 full-size pitch equivalents. Due to the limited use at some of the sites with three or more full-size pitch equivalents, this plan includes a small number of sites with fewer than three full-size pitch equivalents. Prioritisation was endorsed by local partners based upon the rationale to select local authority and club sites that were best utilised and of the highest strategic significance:
10 - Astley's Association (Warley) – works to natural grass pitches
11 - Brearley Fields (Mytholmroyd) – works to natural grass pitches
12 - Carr Green – works to natural grass pitches
13 - Crossley’s Sports Ground – works to natural grass pitches
14 - Himmat Project (Raven Street Centre) – works to natural grass pitches
15 - Greetland Community & Sporting Organisation (Goldfields Recreation Ground) – works to natural grass pitches, equipment bank for club
16 - Natty Lane Playing Fields – works to natural grass pitches
17 - Ovenden Community Sports Association (OSCA) – works to natural grass pitches
18 - Shelf Juniors (Halifax Road) – works to create four natural grass pitches, equipment bank for club
19 - Savile Park – works to natural grass pitches
20 - Southowram Cricket Club (Beacon Rangers JFC)- works to natural grass pitches (pitch development)
06
These can provide a number of different benefits. While the primary function is normally the provision of changing rooms to accommodate match-play and training (for players and officials), there can be equal value in facilities such as community and education rooms, catering facilities and spectator toilets.
Each project will take a progressive approach to pavilions and clubhouses (beyond the provision of changing rooms) and be open to new opportunities to engage the whole community. That means, creating environments that are welcoming to players, spectators, volunteers, officials and all sections of the community.
Such assets should support other investment priorities (e.g. 3G FTPs and grass pitches) and be located at sites that will have the greatest impact on local communities. To ensure this, focus is given to sites with three or more full-size pitch equivalents. However, as pitch quality is the number one priority for players this is prioritised before investment in changing room pavilions /clubhouses.
Clearly, facilities need to be well managed and maintained to keep them in a good state of repair. Consideration will be given to reviewing the best operator solution for key sites and the installation of revenue generating features such as catering facilities and community rooms. To achieve this, business plan support will be given to each priority project as it progresses to an application to the Football Foundation.
Of the 14 key sites in Calderdale, six have suitable changing room pavilions/clubhouses, five have existing facilities that need improvement/ replacement and three have no facilities and require a new changing pavilion.
Eight priority projects for potential investment have therefore been identified. Five projects have three or more full-size pitch equivalents and have either no facilities or were assessed against a standard criteria to have an unsuitable pavilion. Due to limited usage at some sites with three or more full-size pitch equivalents, the Plan includes recommendations for development at a small number of strategically important sites which have fewer the three full-size pitch equivalents:
10 -Astley's Association (Warley) – refurbish changing pavilion
11 - Brearley Fields (Mythenroyd) – new changing pavilion
12 - Carr Green – refurbish changing pavilion
17 - Ovenden Community Sports Association (OSCA) – refurbish changing pavilion
18 - Shelf Juniors (Halifax Road) – new changing pavilion
19 - Savile Park – refurbish changing pavilion
21 - Holmefield Recreation Ground/Beechwood Park – refurbish changing pavilion
22 - Stubb Field – refurbish changing pavilion
07
Good facilities are important to all small-sided football players, but it is important to understand the different formats of the small-sided game and the various facility types they relate to.
Research suggests that small-sided players in teams & leagues, and in recreational sessions, prefer a 3G surface type because it replicates a good standard natural turf pitch. These facilities have already been covered in the 3G FTP section of this LFFP.
Indoor environments currently accommodate 20% of football participation and are also popular with players in teams & leagues and recreational sessions . Indoor sports halls are most popular, along with some community halls and indoor 3G centres. Environments need to be engaging, have clear line-marking and the correct size goalposts.
Informal players require facilities that are open and free to access as this enables play opportunities that are often spontaneous. In these circumstances multi-use games areas (MUGAs) can be effective in areas of high urban population and limited green space. Such facilities can be modern, bright, creative and engaging. While this plan will identify suitable locations for such facilities, the design and specifics of the facility type can be agreed at a later stage with Football Foundation staff when projects are ready to progress to pre-application stage.
Parks and open green spaces are also important to informal play and require goalposts and zones that are free from litter and dog fouling.
Local consultation reveals there are two indoor facilities that require improvement to develop small-sided football. Including:
15 - Greetland Community & Sporting Organisation (Goldfields Recreation Ground) – refurbish indoor facility
15 - Himmat Project – refurbished indoor facility
Five potential opportunities for MUGA’s have been identified. In each case the rationale is based on the site being in an area of high urban population , limited green space , high levels of deprivation, high levels of lower social economic groups and corresponding high local demand for informal football:
23 - Smith House Estate – upgrade MUGA
24 - Westview Park – upgrade MUGA
25 - Kings Cross Park – creation of a MUGA
26 - Luddenden Youth Centre – upgrade MUGA
27 - Old Earth School – upgrade MUGA
Following local consultation, five locations have been identified to support small-sided informal football. Here, the rationale is based on highly popular local parks and open green spaces with suitable space / areas to increase informal football:
19 - Savile Park – informal football provision
28 - Battinson Road (disused car park) – informal football provision (line marking)
29 - Beechwood Park – informal football provision
30 - Manor Heath Park – informal football provision
31 - Mixenden Activity Centre (Mixenden Rec) – informal football provision
08
This list compiles all of the priority projects for potential investment. Each project has been scored against two principle factors: deliverability and outcomes (quality, inclusivity, sustainability, engagement and usage).
The list will be used flexibly; a projects ‘rating’ does not determine the exact order that it will progress to a funding application to the Football Foundation as we understand there are many factors that influence this. The process for moving a project from this list and into the ‘pre-application stage’ will be managed by the Football Foundation.
