The Facilities At The FootballCV Academy
The FootballCV Academy opened in 2007 and was based at Nene Park, also previously home to Rushden & Diamonds FC and more recently Kettering Town FC. However in 2011 the Academy moved to the brand new purpose built stadium at Steel Park, also home to Corby Town FC.
Although only a short move across Northamptonshire the new Steel Park facility provides the Academy players with a state-of-the-art sports venue.
Steel Park includes a mainstand which was erected with room for 577 spectators. With supporters also able to stand on the terrace behind the goal and around the perimeter of the pitch, the official capacity of the stadium is 3,893.
The site also has training pitches, tennis courts, an athletics track, boardroom, sponsors lounge, hospitality room, social club and changing rooms.
