Notes
Existing facilities: three full size pitch equivalents and one full size 3G FTP with changing facilities.
Current users: 29 affiliated teams. This is made up from Deano's Pro Soccer Academy, Linkage FC and Ruston Sports FC, as well as Lincolnshire FA Ladies Disability. This also includes walking football teams.
Rationale: a well used site with a 3G FTP in need of a resurface in order to meet FA register criteria. This resurface and subsequent FA registration will also see users who had been using the site return. This site is located in an area of high football demand, as well as sitting close to areas of higher deprivation.
There is also a need to improve both pitch and changing facility quality on this site. Improvements to changing will also allow the site to better accommodate female football.
