Same thing after hosting our World Cup. We had stories about girls having to go off on their own to pee in the bushes because of lacking facilities.

Yeah it was very difficult for my club to get proper toilets and changerooms.

We’ve had no choice to use gross portaloo’s for years whilst our change rooms were a shed basically.

Yep it’s pretty sad when we know what is happening at grass roots clubs ?! Not much unless it’s the club themselves funding and you need a local counciller working his office to help with funding.
When I see a article on Grants it’s just noise - whatever does develop from it is small and no where near enough.
