Woking FC is set to reduce its stadium capacity following a safety assessment. The club, which plays in the National League, has lowered its crowd limit from approximately 6,000 to 3,000 fans for upcoming home matches.
Reasons Behind the Capacity Cut
This significant reduction follows a match against Aldershot Town in late March, where an “increased level of match day oversight” was necessary. In response, Woking FC began collaborating with the local Safety Advisory Group to enhance safety measures.
Importance of Safety Enhancements
The club emphasized that these changes aim to maintain the highest standards of safety while also improving the overall supporter experience. By implementing these safety enhancements, Woking FC is committed to providing a secure environment for all attendees.
Future Steps
As the club works on these safety measures, it plans to reassess the stadium’s capacity based on the effectiveness of the enhancements. The community can expect further updates on the status of these initiatives and any potential future adjustments to capacity.
