3G Pitches

We are delighted to have 2 x full size 3G pitches at The Cheshire County Sports Club. These pitches are proving to be very popular and have outstanding value for money with the very affordable prices on offer. The 3G pitches can accommodate most sports and have mini soccer and 11v11 football markings and posts on them. Block bookings and casual bookings are welcome. Our 3G pitches are home to local football teams such as Upton JFC, Newton Athletic, Chester FC, AFC Tarvin, Waverton JFC and many more.

The pitch is home to Romans training and home matches.

Synthetic Pitches

We have a fabulous, fully maintained, synthetic pitch. We take pride in the fact that our synthetic pitches can cater for football, hockey, handball, tennis, bubble football, and anything else you can think of that requires a synthetic surface that is fully enclosed in a safe environment with plenty of parking and changing facilities.

We offer 3 x 6 a-side pitches for football/junior hockey.

If you are looking to host a large tournament or event here the main 3G pitch even has its own spectator seating areas!

Grass Pitches/Areas

At The Cheshire we have 9 grass football pitches, ranging in size from 11 a-side to 9v9 and mini-soccer, from a weekly standard pitch to the county standard West Cheshire pitch that has its own stand and is self-contained.

Our grass pitches are home to Football, American Football, Cricket (fully maintained cricket square) and Archery and come with access to indoor changing facilities (including separate changing facilities for the officials too).

Tired or hungry after your game then you can always make use of our Clubhouse for a snack, team food or thirst quenching drink as our Social team can provide anything from Burgers @TheCheshire to a full buffet at affordable prices.

Indoor Sports Hall

Located in our main building the sports hall is our jewel, this truly multi-use facility is able to host many sports ranging from Football, Badminton, Table Tennis, Basketball & Netball (full length courts), Archery, Volleyball etc and has 2 indoor cricket lane nets also.

This hall is also used for large events such as antique fairs, table-top sales and corporate events as well as a variety of full day/weekend tournaments for local, county and even national and international competitions.

The Cheshire Football Tournaments

Every year we run our own tournaments for boys and girls.
The current ones can be found on Tournify.
To help you, here are a list of FAQ's.

Where will the tournament be held? Will it be on grass or 3G?
All the boys tournaments will be held on 3G pitches at Maninngs Lane, CH2 4EU.
The girls weekend will be held on a combination of grass and 3G but all pitches depending on their age group again will be on Mannings Lane, CH2 4EU.

What time is Kick Off?
Kick off times are advertised on the poster, it is advised you arrive an hour before the event kicks off

Is there onsite parking?
Yes, there is parking on Mannings Lane. On tournament days there is a parking charge of £5 per car.

What format is it? (7 a side, 9 a side etc)
Age groups will be playing the format they play in the league as per the 2025/26 season.

What age group is the tournament?
Tournament ages are set for THIS season, 2025/26

How can I enter a team?
All entries are through Tournify at https://tournifyapp.com/live/cheshirecup26

What level is the tournament?
All our tournaments are for grassroots clubs, this means academy teams or players cannot take part. All teams must also be registered teams, "tournament teams" are not permitted. Upon entry, teams will be asked which league and division they play in to attempt to keep it as balanced as possible.

Mixed tournaments
Though our tournaments are advertised as boys and girls, we are aware that some girls play in teams predominantly made up of boys and they are of course welcome. Any girls team that wants to enter a boys tournament are also welcome to do so.

When teams sign up they will also be able to download the rules through Tournify, but for reference the only rule that is different than "normal" football is for mini soccer, where throw ins must be passed (kicked) in on the floor to another player.
