Albion in the Community for the West Sussex area recently celebrated the opening of a brand new training facility in Oving.

John Pitts, a local farmer, has kindly contributed a significant sum in order to transform his land into a playing pitch.

A mixed under-11s game was held between players from the Development Centres in Billingshurst, Westergate and Selsey, and local side Meon Milton.

West Sussex football development officer Tony Clarke said, "This was a fantastic gesture from John which has given more children in West Sussex the opportunity to play football, and we would like to thank him for everything he has done."

There will be an open day on Sunday 22nd November, which will include a friendly between project sponsors Hyde Marlet and the Woodhorn Group, and an Albion in the Community Coaches XI.
