Newark to Groundshare at Basford

The agreement will see the Midland League Premier Division side play their home league and cup matches at Greenwich Avenue next season, after unfortunately being evicted from their ground by the landowner who plans to build houses on the site.

 

This will not impact either club`s fixtures, as when we play at home they will be scheduled in for an away fixture and vice versa.

 

Newark chairman Gary Clarke said: “We would like to publicly thank Basford United for allocating this move for us, they have been absolutely fantastic in every way.

 

“Basford have always set the benchmark for us and we will enjoy using their fantastic and ever improving facilities, we also look forward to working alongside everyone at the club and wish them all the best for the season ahead.

 

“The agreement secures the continuation of the football club at step five and gives us valuable time to engage with local councillors to negotiate options to find a new home in Newark to relocate and build the club at the heart of the community where it belongs.”

 

Basford chairman Chris Munroe added: “I would like on behalf of Basford United to formally welcome all connected with Newark FC to Greenwich Avenue and I have no doubt we will provide a superb venue for all its fans, players and officials”.
