The Durham Ladies currently use NFP but I know the Russell Foster also uses it for the youngns league. My lad plays there every Saturday in the U7 league
 

Watched a lot of footie at New Ferens Park down the years. Anyone remember a friendly between Durham City and a pretty strong Sunderland XI not long after it opened? Might have been 1995/96? SAFC won 3-1, IIRC, have a feeling Chris Woods was in goal. Not clear why they'd buy it now, considering that Eppleton serves pretty much the same purpose and is closer to Sunderland.

Anyway, for those asking about Durham Utd earlier in the thread, I took the blog to one of their first games in the Wearside League development division last season:

Durham Women usually a good day out as well:
 
Tommy Porter had the pitch like a carpet when our Ressys played there.

The astroturf surface there is now an absolute disgrace and the floodlights are shocking too.

Zero maintenance been done for years.
