Blackburn Rovers FC opens redeveloped indoor centre

A redeveloped indoor football centre has opened its doors at Ewood Park, home of the Blackburn Rovers Football Club (BRFC).

BRFC and Blackburn Rovers Community Trust have invested £400,000 in upgrading the venue, which runs a wide range of projects and programmes targeted for people of all ages. The centre is owned by BRFC and is managed by the trust.

The improvement works, which included the installation of new 3G playing surfaces, were funded in part by a £165k grant from the Football Foundation, with Blackburn with Darwen Council providing a further £50,000 towards the works.
