Drogheda Boys / Girls FC have applied for the maximum amount of Sports Capital funding available in the recent round of grant applications 2021.

​

A huge amount of work has been done to give the club the best chance of gaining maximum points on the application.

​

The facility will be better situated at the entrance to Marley's Lane and will consist of four modern dressing rooms, multiple male/female toilet areas, referee area, education room and will be wheel-chair accessible.

​

With a modern and safe facility at the club, it is expected to see a huge growth of players joining our girls section which will see the player numbers at our club increase to almost 500 players.

​

It will also see the introduction of walking-football for the over 50's.

​

The club has also signed licence agreements with Youth Work Ireland and the Drogheda Late Night League which will see both organisations use the facility on a regular basis.

​

It is hoped that the results of Sports Capital funding will be released towards the end of 2021 and work can begin the following year.

​

This will be the first phase of the Marley's Lane development plan, other phases include

• Building of new car park

• Development of high quality natural grass main pitch.

• Development of 4g Astro Pitch
