A girls' football club in West Fife has been given a taste for success thanks to a local housing developer.

Cala Homes donated a new high-spec kitchen and appliances to Bayside Girls FC in Hawkcraig Park, a £6,000 investment as part of its community pledge programme in Aberdour.

Jim Leishman, Provost of Fife and former Dunfermline Athletic FC manager, unveiled the new facilities and joined the team for a kickabout in celebration.

"Huge credit to the club and Cala Homes for coming together to fit out the clubhouse with a new kitchen, which I am sure will be a great resource to the team and the community."

The kitchen will serve as a revenue stream for the club and a space that can also be used by Aberdour Shinty Club and Crossgates FC.

Paul Murray, coach at Bayside Girls FC, said: "Both myself and the girls are absolutely delighted with the finished product and are already loving using it.

"Sports clubs need the support of the local community and businesses to continue to operate and deliver the best possible environment for young people in the local area.

"Our girls are developing and thriving more than ever before thanks to the backing of Cala.

"The aim of the club is to encourage more young girls locally into playing football and this upgrade in our facilities can only help us towards achieving this."

Elaine Doyle, sales and marketing director for Cala Homes, said: "This was a wonderful project to undertake and is part of a series of commitments we have brought to life in the village of Aberdour via our community pledge.

“We are proud to have finished the kitchen at the Bayside Girls FC clubhouse in the village, and hope it assists them in continuing their invaluable work in promoting healthy living and participation in sport in the local area.”
