New football facilities proposed for Hampton Common

To meet a growing demand for football, particularly from junior and girls’ teams, our Parks Team are now consulting on plans to add two new pitches on Hampton Common.

The proposals map out a new 9-a-side football pitch and 5-a-side training grid, which would join the existing 11-a-side and 9-a-side pitches already available. With football's ever-growing popularity among women and girls, female teams and groups will receive priority on the new pitches.

To further support bringing more football to local teams and players, we’re also proposing upgrades to the former Ambulance Station on Tangley Park Road. These would include installing an internal storage and a permanent accessible toilet, replacing the current temporary portaloo used during weekend matches.

Find out more about the proposals for additional football pitches and complete the online survey by Sunday 14 September.
