Following recent changes to the club committee we report the following actions designed to arrest the poor financial position of the club, enhancement of the facilities and growth in income required for the long term sustainability of the club.

A new deal has been negotiated with Carlsberg UK who will be our sole supplier. Members will see a reduction in prices and new products will be introduced at the bar. The deal also included promotional arrangements enabling us to enhance the facility (see below)

Bars and Cellar will be refurbished by Carlsberg UK and this will enable us to reduce prices whilst maintaining gross margins. There will be additional savings through greatly reduced wastage (ullage)

A new Point of Sale (electronic till) system is being installed at no cost to the club. This will allow promotional prices to be enabled, for example bar prices for Cup Final / Royal wedding day sponsored at £2.00 per pint with the same deal for every game in World Cup and further Carlsberg promotions for each England game

We have added televisions all around the main lounge which means multiple sports and other events can be watched simultaneously satisfying more members who can enjoy their preferred sports and hopefully stay longer at the Club, enjoying the various new brands of beer, wine, and spirits

The Ariel Lounge is being refurbished with new French door, low ceiling, new and ‘mood’ lights and a fresh coat of paint

Refurbishment of the foyer, ladies & gents toilets will be carried out in the very near future

The Car Park is being repaired

The roof has been repaired where it previously leaked in the lounge

We will continue to work hard to secure the future of the club and will continue to update you of progress towards this aim

Richard Lennon, Chairman

Culcheth Sports Club would like to thank Stuart Nightingale and the football section for all the time and effort they put into the recent Christmas Lunch provided free of charge to the community of Culcheth. This was made possible from the kind donations from local companies and of course the football section members themselves who gave up their own time to cook and wait on the tables.

Following the award in February of a Grant from Biffa Award of almost £50,000, Culcheth Sports Club have completed a major upgrade to their changing and showering facilities

On completion, at the end of July, the development resulted in four completely refurbished changing rooms  for teams, two officials’ changing rooms and two showering facilities, along with a new heating system.

The work has brought the facility up to Football Association National Step 7 requirements.

Biffa Award is a multi million pound fund that helps to build communities and transform lives through awarding grants to community and environmental projects across the UK as part of the Landfill Communities Fund

A club spokesman said: “The new facilities meet modern standards and with this grant from Biffa Awards the club  aim to increase club membership and sports participation in the surrounding area.”

Stuart Nightingale, chairman of the Football Club, who play Cheshire County football, said: “This grant has enabled us to continue our work to grow the club. We increased the number of teams using the facility from five to seven in September 2015 with two youth teams having joined the club.”

This year we are pleased to announce that  a women’s team have been formed and will start playing in September 2016

Gillian French, Head of Grants, Biffa Award said: “Transforming the changing rooms at Culcheth Sports Club will hopefully help to increase membership, and engagement in sport. Projects such as this are an excellent example of how the Landfill Communities Fund can help to create outstanding facilities for the community.”

An opening ceremony for the new facility will be held at Culcheth Sports Club on Tuesday 27 September commencing 11am
