Hertha_BJFC Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Its looking good and I agree that western park had seen better days but it still saddens me a wee bit in seeing these carbon copies being churned out for junior teams rather than grounds being unique . Best wishes to Renfrew though and they are a good club with good people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renfrewfc Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 a couple of pictures taken today. One showing the first of the floodlights going up. There will be 6 in total, one in each of the four corners and one at either side of the half way line. The 2nd picture shows the pitch from the Normandy Hotel end looking back towards the town centre. The pitch has now been fully installed. Clubhouse and covered terrace should arrive next week. Contractor due to complete their work by next Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you not be better spreading them out a wee bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpal27 Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Renfrew FC new ground update. Floodlights now up, pitch lined, dugouts installed and turnstiles being erected. Pavilion expected to be constructed next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtln Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 How big will the covered area be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmac25 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 What I don't get is why the floodlight pylon at the halfway line is directly in front of the enclosure while the corner ones are set back? Otherwise looks excellent! Is it all set up for sfa licencing or have Renfrew no interest in this? MTLN. I think I read that the enclosure was for 200 people but can't find where I got it from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renfrewfc Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Another photo from today. Work was due to finish this week, but because of expected high winds the delivery and installation of the modular building, which will be our clubhouse, was postponed. The supplier will try again next week so fingers crossed for better conditions. The pitch is down and lined, and the rubber crumb infill will continue to go in. All 6 floodlight masts are up, and dug outs are anchored in. Tarmac has been applied around three sides of the park, with the final part due once the clubhouse is in place, at which point the final section of fence will be installed to enclose the ground. The turnstile building is on its foundations and the covered terrace will be delivered w/c 16th February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, like you I was surprised to see the floodlight in front of the viewing area. I guess it is possibly there because it would interefere with the covered enclosure if it was further back from where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renfrewfc Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 The floodlights are there because on the original drawing the back of the stand formed part of the perimeter fence, and therefore there wasn't any space behind it to site a floodlight mast. We've since asked for the fence to be completed behind the stand which will sit slightly forward of that point, but unfortunately not in time to change the floodlight position.
