COVID-19: Latest football updates

Following the latest guidance from the Football Association (FA) and Public Health Rochdale, outdoor football can recommence across the borough. Council football pitches will be open soon.

In line with national guidance clubs registered with formal bodies will need to complete a risk assessment and send a copy to the FA and the council.
No more than 30 people including players, coaches and spectators can gather to a sporting event.
Pavilions and changing room facilities will remain closed until further notice.

We will monitor the situation closely and update this page if further guidance is issued.

Most sport and fitness activities and clubs in the borough are run by Link4Life. Link4Life is the trading name for the Rochdale Boroughwide Cultural Trust. It's an independent company limited by guarantee and is a registered charity.

Link4Life's purpose is to plan and manage the delivery of high quality, enjoyable, affordable, accessible cultural provision in Rochdale Borough that gives residents and visitors the opportunity to keep fit, and lead a healthy, creative, active lifestyle of their choice.
