The state-of-the-art academy, on Witton Road, will provide access for the local community through the Aston Villa Foundation and in partnership with local junior football clubs.
While Aston Villa operates a training base for senior players at Bodymoor Heath, north of Sutton Coldfield, the club is now bringing forward these exciting new plans that will enable the club to grow its youth training programme within the city - just 500 yards from Villa Park.
Indoor & outdoor 3G pitches – both floodlit – will be included alongside a claret cladded new build that will facilitate lounges for parents, changing facilities, and office space.
The academy, which will provide opportunities for age 4 upwards, is expected to see up to 100 players and 20 staff use the facilities.
Three access points, three new car parks containing 445 vehicular spaces (inc. 5 disabled) & 16 cycles, are to be delivered.
