BRADFORD (Park Avenue) have announced they will definitely be making their first appearance on their new Horsfall surface on Tuesday.
The club comfirmed that earlier today their 3G pitch passed the FA and FIFA inspection to ensure it was fit for purpose.
Bradford were set to make their debut in their refurbished stadium against Grantham Town on Saturday, but that game was moved to the Northern Premier League side's ground yesterday as a precaution.
Instead, Mark Bower's men will face Yorkshire Amateur (7:30pm) next at home in a behind closed doors friendly in mid-week.
The pitch will also be available for the public to hire when the booking system goes live on Monday.
