The Scottish Football Partnership has made a Facilities Award to Threave Rovers F.C. to assist with the cost of replacing the existing roof covering the seated enclosure at Meadow Park. David McMath from the club’s Board of Management said “The existing roof structure which was constructed from concrete beams and asbestos cement sheeting was cracked creating a health and safety risk and allowing water through onto the seated area. Obviously, this was creating a poor spectator experience and provided risk of injury and required to be addressed as part of the club’s requirements to meet Scottish FA Club Licensing criteria.”
David commented “that the project had greatly enhanced the facility and the club now had a better pavilion which would enhance spectator experiences and provide a safer environment for all to enjoy sport and recreation. He went on to say that “The funding process was excellently managed by the SFP and the club would not have been able to deliver the project without the funding and the sound advice given by the SFP staff. The Partnership is vital to Scottish football as it supports clubs of all sizes and enables them to grow and improve their facilities. The club would like to thank most sincerely the Board and staff of the SFP for their sound advice and assistance in delivering this project.”
