A football club in Ivybridge has given its clubhouse a massive refurbishment as the club celebrates its 100th year. The major project at Ivybridge Town Football Club was supported by South Hams District Council.

To help meet its priority of supporting the district’s communities, the council has provided almost £250,000 of Section 106 funding to the football club for the work. The venue now has a revamped bar, changing rooms for players and match officials alike, and a new roof, which had been badly leaking before the 12-week refurbishment project began.

The council also provided £7,800 to help replace the existing floodlight bulbs with LED bulbs, which means the club can host evening games with no concerns over visibility, while also improving energy efficiency and reducing bills.
