Coaching chief hails ‘massive step’ for QPR

Glyn Hodges believes QPR’s youngsters moving to a new base in Acton is a hugely significant development for the club.

Hodges is assessing the set-up at Rangers following his recent appointment as head of coaching.

And he says securing the use of the Park Club on East Acton Lane for the club’s youth teams – who previously trained at Harlington along with the first team – could turn out to be a watershed moment.

“It’s a massive step. For starters, there’s an indoor area that means on the dark winter nights we can get the boys in there when otherwise they wouldn’t be able to train,” he said.

“There are great facilities there. There’s an astroturf pitch and everything else to give the boys what they need. 

“It ticks all the boxes and it’s exciting that things are now in place to take the club forward.”
