Burnley FC and Burnley FC in the Community are in the running for three awards at November’s upcoming Ladbrokes Northwest Football Awards.
Burnley FC’s official charity will be defending its title as Community Club of the Year (Premier League) – an award the organisation has been honoured with for the past four years in a row.
The charity has also been nominated in the Community Initiative of the Year category for the newly opened Leisure Box facility. Opened in March of this year, the 133,000 sq ft centre in Brierfield is inclusive of an indoor 4G pitch, a sports hall, an 18-line climbing area, a kids’ play area and a dance studio.
