A STATE-OF-THE-ART football arena is set to open its doors at Ford Airfield, later this year.

The Ford Indoor Football Arena, located behind the Flying Fortress, in Yapton Road, is scheduled to open in October.

The £500,000 development will be the largest, private, indoor football venue in the south of England, with four indoor five-a-side football pitches, changing facilities and a merchandise area.
