Wilsteasd is a great community and there is nothing like a love of football to bring a community together.

Wilstead now boasts brand spanking new, state of the art changing rooms and a club facility officially known as the ‘Jubilee Playing Fields Pavilion’ it didn’t arrive overnight though. It has taken literally years of fundraising and lobbying on behalf of committed and caring local residents, Mum’s and Dad’s, teachers and pupils from Wilstead lower school.

The Football Foundation excelled in their generosity by contributing almost £197,000 towards the building project and now the children from Wilstead, boys and girls, can use the playing fields to maximum benefit.

I am looking forward to the official opening party!
