Plans for Harrogate Town training centre at races
Harrogate Town has announced plans to build a £2.75m football training facility at Wetherby Racecourse. The League Two club said it had been searching for a suitable site for five years, since the men's senior team was promoted to the English Football League (EFL). The proposals include a single-storey clubhouse, a grass and artificial pitch, parking and landscaping. A public consultation will take place from 17:00 BST on Thursday at Wetherby Town Hall, with supporters and interested parties invited to have their say on the plans. Harrogate Town's teams currently use training facilities across the region and the club decided a new permanent facility was needed. CEO Sarah Barry said they hoped the new training ground would also be used by the community, including local schools and sports clubs. It would be funded by Harrogate Town on land owned by the racecourse. Following the consultation event and a review of feedback, a planning application will be submitted to Leeds City Council.

We watched Harrogate's previous two matches before we played them last season and Jack stood out," Albion's academy manager Richard Stevens told the club's website. "He is crafty with the ball at his feet, creative in tight areas, and has got that bit of off-the-cuff to his game which we don't always see. "Our job is to let him use that creativity as he progresses through the 21s programme here."
