The club plays at the Rene Road Ground. The first competitive match was played on the Rene Road Ground in August 1961 against Tamworth Working Men's Club, and was developed as a sports and social club in 1975-76. The pitch facilities have changed rapidly, from a small wooden stand, to an all-seated stand. Roped-off areas have been replaced by metal fencing, grassed standing/walking areas have been replaced by hard-core standing, and the floodlights were officially opened by Mark Hughes then of Manchester United. The new dressing rooms have been built nearer the pitch with other social facilities enclosed.
