Accrington Stanley Community Trust (ASCT), has opened a new 3G pitch to the public after receiving a maximum £100,000 grant from the Sky Bet EFL Building Foundations Fund.

The small-sided pitch was built at Stanley Sports Hub, a venue that already serves many local grassroot clubs, sports groups and organisations. 

It will be used by thousands of people annually, including veterans, over 50s and local adult disability teams.

The new 3G pitch at the Stanley Sports Hub is now open and taking bookings, providing the local community with a safe, inclusive place to play and watch sports.
