About the Ground

By Car, bike, van, coach etc

We are located in South Elmsall in West Yorkshire in the middle of the golden triangle of Wakefield, Barnsley and Doncaster, just five minutes drive from the A1, so its easy to get to us.

On arrival there is plenty of FREE parking on the left and right hand side at the end of the lane. For FA cup 3rd round home ties parking may be restricted or subject to a fee

Waze, Google Maps and even TomTom do it better than us but here goes anyway…..

Travelling from the South (and this season that’s most of you!)

Take the A1 northbound from anywhere South of Doncaster exiting at junction 38 to take the A638 exit towards Wakefield, then after about 2 ½ miles turn left on to Field Land and just keep going straight on down Elmsall Hill until you come to the traffic lights turn right at the lights and the left up Westfield Lane

From the North, including Leeds, Halifax, Huddersfield and Glossop

Take the A1 South, don’t be tempted by the M62, keeping heading South exiting for the A639 just after the DD Services. Follow the road round to the left back over the A1, turn left at the junction and then immediate right. Follow that road  (Wrangbrook Lane) until you come to the roundabout take the second exit (straight on in simple terms). At the lights turn left (the Barnsley Oak PH),

From the West

Take the M62 east bound until you get to Gods Own County, for those already blessed keep going to Junction 32 the A1 Junction and head South, then follow the instructions for those coming from the North

From the East, Hull etc

Take the M62 West bound (if you go east you may end up in Norway) to junction 31 take the exit to get on the A1 southbound, its ferrybridge services for those less into junction numbers. Then follow the instructions for those from the North

For those more local

Head towards South Elmsall on the A638 from Doncaster or Wakefield or the A628 for those from tarn (Barnsley)

On arrival in South Elmsall

You will need to head up Westfield Lane, signs for Frickley Athletic. Up the hill over the plentiful speed bumps for 800 Yards (its near enough the same as metres) and as you get close to the top of the hill you will need to turn left at the sign Frickley Athletic FC down the lane towards the ground and parking.

Refuelling – we recommend the Jest Service station Doncaster Rd, South Elmsall, Pontefract, WF9 2JH

By Public Transport

Train we are served by two, yes count them TWO train stations.

South Elmsall Station – Trains running between Leeds, Wakefield and Doncaster stop here, and then it’s a 5minute walk up the hill, on arrival we recommend going Straight to Big Fellas Bar to ensure you are adequately hydrated

Moorthorpe Station – Trains run between Sheffield and Leeds. From Moorthorpe station head up towards South Elmsall down Barnsley road, passing Aldi on the left turn right up Carlton Road, keep going until you reach West field Lane, turn right and if you’ve got this far you’ll work it out.
