PLAYERS at an amateur football club are settling into new surroundings at a plush Chester-le-Street venue.
Following discussions with Riverside bosses, Chester Athletic FC have officially announced that the development is their base.
In a mutually beneficial arrangement, the Riverside has a club of more than 100 children who enjoy using the facilities on a regular basis.
The club has eight teams, ranging from under-eights to under-14s, competing in the local Russell Foster league.
It has announced fundraising drives to raise cash for kits, one at Durham's Sainsbury's store and a fun day at the Riverside, both to be confirmed at a later date.
