Blantyre Soccer Academy are set to expand thanks to another asset transfer of land from South Lanarkshire Council.
The Lanarkshire football side, who train over 400 children at various age groups, a disability, women's and amatuer football teams, have bought over land at Birch Place in the town adjacent to their already established community hub at a price of £800.
The 1943 square metres grassed informal open space will be used to extend their current community activities in partnership with other local organisations and create a community food growing area, wild growing area and outdoor recreational space.
