The Pavilion - Building on Success
OSCA successfully completed the transfer of Forest Cottage. This means that OSCA is now in control of the buildings and four fields until the year 2143 - 125 years!!
The building and fields are secured for community use, to improve well-being and sports participation. It is now for us all to agree how to use the facilities
Contact Us if you have any ideas or want to get involved.
The grant application success from Football Foundation, Rugby League Football, Football Stadium Fund, National Spaccorts Centre Trust, Calderdale Community Foundation and Sports England to cover the cost of our development plans for Forest Cottage.
Since the Foundation accepted community management in 2012 it has achieved its first half £million investment to improve the outdoor facilities with pitch improvement and the addition of a floodlit 3G multi-use games area and informal kick about area.
Crossley’s open age football based at OSCA FOUNDATION, Cousin Lane, Halifax, HX2 8AD have now been able to train under floodlights through a very generous amount of sponsorship from Paul Brooks of Pickerings Lifts whose generosity is greatly received.
