BAA Fallout Clubs Confirm New Home Grounds
|
Following the decision by the Bermuda Athletic Association (BAA) to withdraw their field as a venue for Bermuda Football Association (BFA) matches this season, three of the affected clubs have now confirmed their new home grounds for the remainder of the 2025/26 campaign.
The withdrawal of the BAA field—a previously popular and centrally located venue—necessitated a swift relocation for the clubs that had registered it as their home ground.
The Bermuda Football Association and the affected clubs have moved quickly to secure new pitches, ensuring their home fixtures can be fulfilled without further disruption:
The Dandy Town Hornets, currently Premier Division leaders, have relocated their home fixtures to White Hill Field.
Robin Hood, who are currently neck-and-neck at the top of the First Division, have secured PHC Stadium as their new home pitch.
Vasco, who compete in the First Division, have confirmed their new home base will be the Police Field.
The move will require teams and fans to adjust to the new logistical arrangements, but the confirmation of the venues provides stability for the rest of the season.
