Sky Bet and Chris Kamara Begin Community Hub In Middlesbrough
Sky Bet and the Sky Bet EFL Building Foundations Fund marked a significant milestone with the very first visit to the building site of the Southlands Community and Sports Hub in Park End, Middlesbrough, on Wednesday recently.
The event invited media representatives and key stakeholders to witness the early progress of a transformative advancement for East Middlesbrough.
The Southlands Hub, currently being constructed on the site of the former Southlands Centre on Ormesby Road, is a flagship initiative led by Middlesbrough Council in partnership with the Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation.
The project got a ₤ 100,000 grant from the Sky Bet EFL Building Foundations Fund, along with support from the UK federal government.
The Building Foundations Fund was established by Sky Bet and the EFL to support grassroots initiatives that strengthen local communities through sport, education, and social engagement.
The Southlands Hub exemplifies this mission, intending to offer top-class centers for grassroots football, youth programmes, mentoring, and employability training.

Stage one of the development consists of the construction of the hub structure, including community conference room, a social location, updated 3G and turf pitches, and brand-new open spaces for sport and entertainment. Stage two is expected to bring further enhancements to the website. The website is arranged to open in early summer 2026.
Among those in attendance was former expert footballer and broadcaster Chris Kamara, who matured in the area and played much of his early football in Park End.
