An essential step in starting to develop any facility project is to make contact with our County Development Manager, Nick Emery, via E-Mail at nick.emery@essexfa.com.

We play a key role in supporting and guiding applicants through the process of developing a project, as well as identifying available funding to bring it to life.

If you are intending to improve your football facilities (which may involve 3G football turf pitches, changing room pavilions/clubhouses, grass pitch improvements or better indoor/outdoor spaces) please get in touch.

Please Note: If you have already started work on your project (for example, building/construction has already begun), then it is unlikely that your project will be eligible for funding.

Funding for facilities is constantly changing, but we aim to keep you up-to-date with the main funding bodies that can support the development of any facility project.
