Plans for a new football and community hub in Chris Kamara's hometown have been granted funding.
Middlesbrough Football Club (MFC) Foundation was awarded a £100,000 grant from the Sky Bet EFL Building Foundations Fund for the development in the Park End area of Middlesbrough.
Former footballer and broadcaster Kamara said the Southlands Centre project, with its upgraded pitches and new community rooms, would make a "mega difference".
Acting Head of MFC Foundation Craig McManus added: "We want it to feel like the biggest living room in the area where people feel like they can just come along and be part of it.
