Hollingworth Juniors Football Club are still on the hunt for a new home.

The club, which struggles to secure funding without its own facility, is hoping to return to Longendale High School.

Club chairman Phil Gurton says the club pays between 13-15k per year to rent a 4g facility. We spoke to him about the massive shortage of facilities in Tameside, the importance of finding a home for ALL age groups to play at, the latest developments at the club, the success of a tournament, the importance of sponsors and much more.
