Groundedit
The club played at Pinebanks in Thorpe St Andrew until 2008.[5] After a year at Dussindale,[7] the club moved to Crotstwick Lane in Spixworth in 2009. In 2017 Spixworth Parish Council informed the club that it was no longer able to use the ground, resulting in them relocating to the Football Development Centre in Bowthorpe.[8]
