Our first strategic objective is to play our matches at Waterside Park in Ashbourne.

We own the freehold on 14 acres there and we are working towards building a top class stadium to meet FA ground grading H for step six in the National League System.

The site will be developed for football and for enjoyment by the community with inclusion of a Shrovetide walk to The Hug, a wildlife pond and areas to rest and contemplate, and maybe a sculpture park, butterfly garden and a petanque court. Our masterplan is in the slideshow opposite.

We have a project plan and are working with professional advisers to turn our dream into reality. Raising funds is key to success and we are collaborating with grant-making bodies to secure backing.

You can help, too. Please see our funding site for ideas.
