Replacement of the goals on the main park
The goals on the main park, whilst structurally sound, were
recognised as a hindrance during ground maintenance, whilst hosting training sessions
and when hosting other events at Ham Park, they could impede walkways.
The decision was made to purchase new, modern, mobile goals
that could help us to increase participation levels at the same time as
offering flexibility during park maintenance periods, and also whilst hosting
other community events in the ground.
One of the benefits is that this will enable the club to
adapt the dimensions of the playing surface to accommodate inclusive activities
such as walking football, contributing to the health and wellbeing of the wider
community.
See images of the new goals and their
construction by volunteers below.
The club was very grateful for the support committed from
the Scottish Football Partnership Trust to allow the procurement of the
goals. The club would also like to go on the record and thank the club’s main
sponsor Blargoans Ltd for assisting in the logistics and purchasing of
the goals.
