Rotherham United Community Sports Trust are pleased to announce that we have taken over the Parkgate Astro facility. A facility that we use extensively to deliver sessions to the community of Rotherham, currently we run projects such as MAN V FAT and Walking football. While local football teams are able to book out the facility for their evening training sessions during the winter months.
Not only did we take over the facility the trust has given the facility a much-needed upgrade, with new exterior painting and signs, new LED floodlights, brand new goals, café and games room fitted with darts board’s and a pool table. These upgrades show the trusts commitment to providing quality sporting facilities and sessions to the Rotherham community.
Jamie Noble, the head of RUCST said “This is a great step forward for the Community Sports trust to have our own facility where staff and participants can call their own and grow alongside the trust. In just 3 years we have moved into the New York Stadium, built classrooms and expanded our Education offer and now we have managed to open an outdoor facility which will help us expand both our football offer as well as many other inclusion and health activities. Thank you to the support of the Football Foundation as well as many local businesses who have not only helped swiftly with the requests but have given up their time to support many behind the scenes upgrades that have been necessary to operate from a high quality facility in the heart of the Community”
Rotherham United Community Sports Trust would like to thank all companies that have helped with the upgrades to the facility, without their help this project wouldn’t have ran as smoothly as it has and the facility wouldn’t be upgraded to the quality as it has done.
