City to remain at Aggborough next season

WORCESTER City have confirmed their ground share deal with Kidderminster Harriers will remain in place next season.

The Blue and Whites made Aggborough their temporary home last summer after ending their 108-year stay at St George’s Lane and moved 13 miles up the A449.

Carl Heeley’s men have won five of their 15 games at Aggborough and have chosen to take up their option of a second season for 2014/15.

John Jordan, City company secretary, said: “From our point of view we have found the Aggborough experience to be a very positive one and are delighted to have extended the arrangement for a further season.




“We remain grateful to all Directors, staff and supporters from Kidderminster Harriers who have made us feel so welcome.

“We have received many positive comments from our supporters about the first class match day experience offered at Aggborough and very much hope they will continue to support the Club through next season.”


Ken Rae, Kidderminster chairman, said: “Understandably, Worcester moving to Aggborough temporarily was a bit of a step into the unknown to a certain extent but everyone has been pleased with how things have gone.

“The grounds staff have worked tremendously hard and, approaching the business end of the season for both teams, I think it’s fair to say that hard work is bearing fruit because the pitch is in good condition all things considered.

“We look forward to working with Worcester City again over the course of the next year or so.”
