Neighbours living in a Mansfield estate can now benefit from a new 4G football pitch that has recently been installed at a leisure centre. Residents in Oak Tree will be able to access the pitch which is already taking bookings.
Prior to the installation, the area was a low-usage concrete pitch, which had not been upgraded for over ten years. The old surface was ripped up over the summer last year, and work began to transform the outdoor space.
The pitch is now open to the public and is already taking bookings for football sessions, most recently Mansfield Town Football Club. This project has been funded as part of the new leisure management contract between Mansfield District Council, More Leisure Community Trust and Serco Leisure.
