Woy Woy to host soccer

The use of Woy Woy Oval has been negotiated as an alternative soccer venue for the Central Coast Coasties Soccer Club.

The club was hoping to play games at NorthPower Stadium on December 1 and 15 but the ground was unavailable for the December 1 game.

"Council offered the club Woy Woy Oval at no charge for the game on December 1," said Gosford mayor Cr Robert Bell.

"The other game will be held at NorthPower Stadium on Saturday, December 15, also at no cost to the club.

"The 355 Committee was originally notified no games could be held at the stadium until the end of December due to ground maintenance.

"While the Coasties were hoping to host both games at NorthPower Stadium, it just wasn't possible.

"I'm pleased to say we've worked out an agreement and the Central Coast still gets to see two premier league soccer games," Cr Bell said.
