FTS has begun the upgrading of San Ġwann football ground, a project spanning approximately 4,500 square metres. The upgraded facility will serve both the local community and the adjacent primary school, enhancing accessibility and the overall quality of sports infrastructure in the area.
This ground forms an important space for the community, especially for young people and students at the adjacent primary school, while playing a central role in improving the accessibility and overall quality of sports facilities in this area.
The scope of works includes the replacement of the existing perimeter fencing and the installation of new synthetic turf to replace the current surface.
The total contractual value of the project amounts to €164,805 (exclusive of VAT). This investment forms part of a broader programme to upgrade sports facilities managed by FTS. In 2025 alone, FTS has invested approximately €1,341,535 in sports facilities across various schools.
Further projects are planned in the coming months, including the installation of new synthetic turf at Fgura Primary School, Ħad-Dingli Secondary School, Ħal Kirkop Secondary School, and Santa Luċija Secondary School.
Works at the San Ġwann ground are scheduled as follows: the replacement of the perimeter fencing will take place during the first week of May, followed by the removal of the existing turf in the second week. Installation of the new synthetic surface is planned for the third week of May.
The project is being managed by the Foundation for Tomorrow’s Schools in collaboration with the Ministry for Education, Youth, Sport, Research and Innovation, and Sport Malta.
