Mansfield Town secures approval for academy expansion plans

Mansfield Town has received approval from the Mansfield District Council to expand its football academy at the Radford & Hymas training site. The plans include the construction of new buildings, featuring an indoor pitch, an outdoor pitch with lighting, and a gym. Additional car parking facilities are also part of the proposal. The expansion aims to bolster support for the club's teams at various levels and promote healthier lifestyles within the community. This development follows the club's acquisition of adjacent land in 2023, enhancing their existing facility, which has seen limited investment despite ongoing demand.
