Facility Notes: Brighton & Hove Albion Carries Out Precautionary Checks On Amex Stadium

Premier League side Brighton & Hove Albion "moved to allay fears over the cladding used" on its Amex Stadium. Precautionary checks are being carried out on the club's stadium and nearby training ground in Lancing, Sussex, after it emerged the cladding is made by the same company, Reynobond, which produced materials used on Grenfell Tower. There are "different versions of the cladding with a plastic or fire-retardant mineral core" (London DAILY MIRROR, 6/26).

Super League rugby side Wakefield Trinity will become an "anchor" tenant of a new £10M ($12.7M) community stadium that will be shared with a local football team. Sports administrator Rodney Walker is the "driving force behind an ambitious plan" that includes a 10,000-seat ground, health and fitness centers, restaurants and an academy. The club has been "campaigning" for a new stadium since '10 (DAILY STAR, 6/26).
