STUDLEY have applied for a £5,443 grant from Stratford District Council to improve playing facilities at the club.

The Club is funding a £21,775 project to weed the main pitch, secondary pitch and two mini pitches as well as improve drainage on all three with the work having to be completed in the next two months.

They have applied for a quarter of the costs from the council and the Capital Grant Decision is due next Thursday.

Redditch United Women play on pitch two and the club's junior section - introduced this season - use the mini pitches.
