Getting to this point has taken massive work behind the scenes — countless hours from architect Helena Glover, site testing and drilling, engineers, fire engineer, council consultations, and more. 🙌

A huge thank you to our dedicated Building Committee, IMB Construction, Hon Dr Nick Smith and the council team for their incredible support in helping us get to this stage. We couldn’t have done it without you! 👏

Our journey to our vision of an amazing club hub space for football and community is under way. We will be asking for our community to help us along the way over the next few months, so please keep your eyes peeled for calls to action.

We have some amazing club people onboard the Building Sub-Committee who will be driving this project.

So great to see Hon Dr Nick Smith supporting the beautiful game in the community - he is a fantastic supporter of the FC Nelson Community Hub too!

It was great fun to be goalie while brothers Cooper and Jamison Watson competed against one another to be the first to kick the soccer ball past me into the newly installed goals at Pioneers Park. I played goalie in my teens – I wasn’t very good then and I have not improved.

Cooper, 12, wrote me a letter in February asking for soccer goals to be installed in the Washington Valley park where he said lots of the local kids played football. Jamison, 10, also signed the letter along with the boys’ parents, Odette and Scot, and five others.

I wrote back to Cooper, thanking him for his request for the goals. They could not be installed immediately because the parks team were busy catching up with recovery work from the August 2022 storm but got the job done in time for Christmas.

Big thanks to our NCC parks team for delivering on my commitment.
