Construction Due to Commence on new Multi-Sport Centre

Colin Glen Trust are pleased to announce that a contractor has been appointed and work is due to commence on this 16 week project.

By January 2012, the site on the Blacks Road, which is to become known as Colin Park, will boast 4 multi sport small sided floodlit pitches, a 16 bay driving range and the increasingly popular 9 hole golf course.

Driving Range opens for business

West Belfast has a new sporting facility.  Colin Glen Trust has just opened a brand new state of the art 16 bay driving range beside the Colin Valley Golf Course.

The facility has a number of impressive features such as pop up tees, which automatically replace the ball on the tee peg as soon as you hit your shot, floodlights and a training room featuring the latest in swing analysis video technology.

The opening comes at the same time as Colin Glen Trust secured funding from Sport NI to construct a small sided multi-sport training complex, which will be built on waste ground beside the new driving bays.

Forest Park wins Four in a Row

Colin Glen Trust are please to announce that they have won a prestigious Green Flag for the Forest Park.  This is the fourth year in a row that the Trust has secured this honour, making them the first and only non council operated organisation in N. Ireland to win four consecutive awards.

“This is a great boost for the Forest Park.  We are delighted to have the efforts of the team rewarded in such a way given that we are operating against a background of reducing funding”, stated the Trust’s Chief Executive, Colin O’Neill.
