New Clubhouse at Gresford Sporting Complex

On the eve of the new soccer season, Gresford Vacy Football Club is planning to celebrate! The new clubhouse at Gresford Sporting Complex, home of the mighty Scorpions as well as Gresford’s junior and senior cricket clubs, will be officially opened on April 1 and the entire community is invited to attend.

“We’d really love everyone who has ever been involved with the soccer and cricket clubs, or with the sporting complex in any capacity, to come and celebrate this achievement,” Gresford Vacy Football Club president Jim Doyle said. “This million-dollar clubhouse has taken a lot of hard work and we should all be very proud of this wonderful building that is now ready for our community to use.”

As part of the celebrations, Scorpions teams will be in action all day as they take on visiting teams in a pre-season gala day from 9am right through until late evening. The clubhouse will be officially opened at 11am. While the new clubhouse is ready for use, there is still plenty of landscaping and outdoor improvements to be completed. Club volunteers were in action last week to ready the ground and surrounds for the upcoming season and the first of a series of new spectator seating was installed. The seats were designed and manufactured by the club’s major sponsor Doyle Ag & Fabrication. “This is just the first of 15 seats we have planned for Stage 1,” Doyle said. “We are offering the community an opportunity to sponsor a seat for $1500 and this will include a brass plaque that could be used to show support or as a memorial to someone who was passionate about community sport in our area.”

Anyone keen to sponsor some new seating at Gresford Sporting Complex can contact club president Jim Doyle on 0407 307 800.
