We’re enormously proud of the facilities available to us as, quite simply, we have the best 3/4 size youth football pitch in Dorset, without exception. This pitch was created in summer 2009 in preparation for the U11s starting 11 aside football in September 2009. We have, since then, installed drainage throughout to allow us to still play during the wet season; with special thanks to Paul Froud for his help.
Having been presented with a field, a huge internal effort, with parents working together in true community spirit fashion, supported by grants from East Dorset District Council and the Community Foundation, plus donations from Holt Parish Council and Colehill Parish Council, has led to this achievement.
We have also received kind help from Wimborne & Ferndown Lions, who have provided the shelters for home and away teams and a very generous donation from Kitchen Elegance towards the current lighting project – hopefully to have floodlighting in place by the end of summer 2011.
We are further able to use the full changing room and shower/kitchen facilities of Holt FC – all this for youth football!
