Work begins on new training facility
Work has begun on the first phase of AFC Bournemouth’s new training facility on the former 57-acre Canford Magna golf club.
G&T is providing Cost Management, Principal Designer & CDM Consultancy and Contract Administration services on the phased development which will bring together AFC Bournemouth’s first team, development squad, academy and pre-training operations into one location for the first time.
"We are delighted to be part of this exciting journey, creating state-of-the-art training facilities that will empower both the football club and its players to reach new heights."Craig McLellan
Partner, G&T
The new training ground will include full size pitches, junior pitches and specialist goalkeeping areas alongside both indoor and outdoor artificial playing surfaces. Internally, there will also be state-of-the-art medical, fitness, sports science and rehabilitation facilities as well as administrative space and a press conference media suite.
AFC Bournemouth chief executive, Neill Blake, said: “We are delighted to make this step which will help our thriving academy system. It’s a really positive step for everyone at the football club and we are really pleased to begin development of this first phase of work for our academy.”
