Woodford Town FC and Essex Ladies Athletics Club – New Stadium and Amenities
Client: F.A
Sector: Commercial
Value: £2,300,000.00

A state-of-the-art football and athletics club was constructed, featuring a 350-seater stadium, clubhouse with a gym, and various amenities designed to enhance the sports experience.

Health and safety were top priorities from the outset. A comprehensive risk assessment guided the project, ensuring that all workers adhered to strict safety protocols. During excavation, the team unexpectedly uncovered hazardous materials in the ground, prompting immediate containment and removal by certified specialists. This quick response ensured the safety of the site and compliance with environmental regulations.

The project included the installation of new turnstiles for efficient crowd management, as well as 600 meters of perimeter security fencing to enhance safety. Additional features included a new hammer cage for athletics training, flood lighting for evening events, and a modern PA system for enhanced communication.

A new car park was developed to accommodate visitors, improving accessibility to the club. Despite various challenges, the project was delivered on time and within budget, thanks to effective project management and coordination. The new facility has since become a focal point for the community, promoting sports and fitness while providing a safe and welcoming environment for athletes and spectators alike.
