Last night we had the pleasure of hosting Ren's Kitchen-Caribbean food lovers while our FA Wildcats sessions were running. Amazing food with lots of great reviews.
Ren was so impressed with the community feeling at the club, he wanted to be an honorary member 💙🖤
A reminder that tonight (12/12/25) we have Ren's Kitchen-Caribbean food lovers at Lockey Park.

Unfortunately with this weeks rain, the pitches at Lockey Park are once again unplayable. All games at LP will be off this weekend. Its news that no one at the club wants and we hope that we can get games back on asap.
We have some exciting news to share! Wideopen FC is currently in the viability stage of discussions with the Football Foundation, Northumberland FA about a new full-size 4G 11v11 pitch at another site. As its just in viability stage, anything could happen, but this would provide much-needed, year-round space for our growing club as well as the local community - but don’t worry, this doesn’t take us away from Lockey Park, which will remain our heart and home.
We are so proud of how far we’ve come. From just 30 teams pre-covid, we now run nearly 60, including over 250 female players, and provide football for boys of all ages. We also want to expand our offer to include walking football for over-50s and continue to develop inclusive football programmes for players with additional needs.
With growth comes challenges. We know parking and access around our sites can be tricky, and we want to improve this for everyone. We also dream of turning the Lockey Park clubhouse into a welcoming community space, where families and residents can enjoy events and activities even if they don’t play football.
These exciting plans can only happen with help. As a non-profit club, we need to raise funds and build partnerships to make them a reality. Whether through fundraising, sponsorship, or sharing our story, your support will help us provide safe, inclusive, and sustainable football opportunities for our entire community. In the next few weeks we will be sharing more around how businesses can support us and create this positive change for the community.
We’re incredibly grateful to our players, families, volunteers, current sponsors, and neighbours for helping us grow - and we can’t wait to take the next steps together! 🤞🤞
A brilliant night of football for our U7 Rockets who were kindly invited into the Academy to play 4v4 games against Newcastle last night⚽️

Everyone at Wideopen would like to wish our U13 Wolves player, Jackson Carr the very best as he begins his well-deserved trial with Sunderland Academy next week 👏👏

Good luck Jacko, enjoy every moment and have fun with the experience 👌🔵⚫️
