Work set to start on £3m Thame facility
The Thame Football Partnership (TFP) has announced that work is set to start on the construction of a new £3m community football centre at Church Farm in Thame, Oxfordshire.
Plans for the 20-acre (8.1-hectare) site, which will become the home of Thame Boys, Youth and Girls Football Club and Thame United Football Club (TUFC), include nine pitches, including a floodlit main pitch and a floodlit artificial pitch. More than four years of work have gone into the development of the proposals, which has seen TFP work in partnership with consultants Sports Solutions GB and a range of other local delivery partners and funding organisations.
Thame Town Council, the Football Foundation and South Oxfordshire District Council have all contributed towards the scheme, as well as capital released from residential planning permission granted at the former home of TUFC. Oxfordshire County Council have provided a long-lease for the majority of the land for a nominal rent in order to help progress the scheme, which is now set for completion in the autumn.
