Last updated : 27 September 2004 By Rich Godden
Mr Gore told the Official Chelsea website: “The training facilities at Cobham will be a massive step forward for Chelsea. Not only will we have state of the art playing and training facilities, it will also give the club a solid foundation from which to build.

“The Football in the Community Department already has a very proactive working relationship with Elmbridge Leisure Services and development team and they will be working closely in the planning of a fully comprehensive community development programme.

“The programme will encompass projects surrounding healthy lifestyles, education and football development. However there will be flexibility towards the needs of the local community.

“The opportunity to use the magnificent facilities at Cobham through the community scheme will be a fantastic prospect for the local people of Elmbridge and we look forward to working with them."
