Major Investment for 3G Training pitch at Monkstown

A £350K investment by the Council will see the existing grass training pitch at Cloyne Crescent, Monkstown, converted into a 3G training pitch.

This major conversion will include the resurfacing of the original grass training pitch with a 3G surface, floodlights and fencing making the new area more accessible and secure for the whole community to use.

Local sporting clubs, community groups and schools will all benefit from this new facility which is due to be completed by late summer 2023.

Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey Alderman Stephen Ross said:

“I am delighted this 3G training pitch is planned for Monkstown. It will be a great asset to the community and give pride to the local sporting groups using it on a daily basis.”
