| What's The Ground Like? |
| Church Road is a classic looking old ground that has banks of
terracing that sweep around it. On one side is the Main Stand, which was
originally built in 1925. The stand which straddles the half way line, is
covered and all seated and is raised above pitch level. It has a number of
supporting pillars that run across the front of it, which is to be
expected with a stand of this age. The team dugouts are located in front
of the stand, with areas of open terrace to either side. Opposite is a
fair sized mostly covered terrace, known affectionately as 'the Shed'.
This covered terrace, does not provide cover for the whole of its length,
but at least does cover the terrace down to pitch side. There are also a
number of supporting pillars running across the front of it. Both ends are
open terraces that are quite steep and continue around the corners of the
ground. The stadium has a set of eight floodlight pylons, four of which
run down each side.
The club were formed in 2007, following a merger of Hayes FC and Yeading FC. |
|
It is hoped that at some point the Club will re-develop Yeading's old ground 'The Warren into a stadium that would meet Football League standards. The Club would then move from Church Road to the Warren. |

| What Is It Like For Visiting Supporters? |
| Hopefully for the majority of games this season, supporters will not be segregated. However, it is felt that this is required then away fans will be housed in the Church Road Terrace which is at the main entrance of the ground. Part of the Shed terrace will also be allocated, but only a small proportion of covered terrace will be available. So if your team has a large support and the weather is not great, then be prepared to get wet! Normally a relaxed and friendly day out. |

|
| Where To Drink? |
| At the ground there is a club house called the Ferdinand suite that is open to away supporters. Otherwise a ten minute walk away is the Adam & Eve pub. |

| Hotel Accommodation |
| If you require hotel accommodation in the area then first try a hotel booking service provided by Football Hotels who are powered by Activehotels, who specialise in locating accommodation near or within a short travelling distance of the football ground. They also have the added advantage over some other hotel booking services that you pay on departure. Yes this site will earn a small commission if you book through them, but it will go to help with the running costs of keeping the Guide going. To access their Hayes page click here. |
