Durham City AFC is pleased to announce that we have today, formally agreed a one year Ground Sharing Agreement, with our friends at Willington Association Football Club, to use Hall Lane stadium for all of our home First team games for the 2017/18 season.

We will continue to play our midweek home games on Tuesday evenings and Willington AFC will play their midweek home games on Wednesday evenings.

Both clubs will play at Hall Lane on alternate Saturdays as fixed by the Ebac Northern League, who have ratified the Agreement in principle. There is also an option to extend the agreement beyond one season.

The Club would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody at Consett Football Club for welcoming us during the past 18 months. Your support was greatly appreciated.

While we are working hard behind the scenes to secure a new stadium for the club within the vicinity of Durham City, we believe the move to Willington will be welcome by our supporters who have had to travel much further recently in support of their team.

We are really looking forward to next season and we hope to see you all soon for the pre-season friendlies.
