This award went towards Phase Two of the club’s upgrade which was to replace the pavilion doors and windows.

The pavilion is regularly used by football and bowls teams along with their visitors and is used by an indoor games league and country music club.

Various local organisations also use the Pavilion for meetings and fund-raising events.
