Grant pays for new security fencing around astro pitch

Fri, 21 Oct 2022

Security fencing at King William’s College’s astro pitch has been upgraded thanks to a £30,954 community grant from Manx Lottery Trust.

The boundary fencing was more than 20 years old and because of exposure to the coastal environment the metal had corroded, which created holes and sharp edges in the fence line.

The pitch provides important facilities for a variety of sports, including hockey, football, tennis, and circuit training, and is used by many sports clubs and community groups in addition to pupils at KWC.
