LNER STADIUM - York City FC
York Community Stadium (known for sponsorship purposes as the LNER Community Stadium) is a multi-purpose stadium in Huntington, York, England. It is owned by City of York Council, and is shared by York City Football Club and York City Knights Rugby League Football Club. The capacity of the all-seater stadium is 8, 500.
The move to a new stadium was necessitated by the terms of the loan York City secured from the Football Stadia Improvement Fund to purchase their Bootham Crescent ground. Planning permission for the current design, put forward by Greenwich Leisure, was granted in March 2015. After several delays, construction began in December 2017 and was completed in December 2020. In addition to the stadium, the site houses a leisure complex and a community hub.
The opening match at the York Community Stadium saw York City take on AFC Fylde on 16 February 2021, which ended in a 3–1 victory for Fylde, with Alex Whitmore scoring the opening goal at the stadium. The stadium hosted both women's semi-finals of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup

EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the grandeur of LNER Stadium - York City FC, this stunning print showcases the state-of-the-art multi-purpose stadium nestled in Huntington, York, England. Owned by City of York Council and shared by both York City Football Club and York City Knights Rugby League Football Club, this all-seater stadium boasts a capacity of 8,500 spectators. The journey to this new stadium was driven by the loan secured from the Football Stadia Improvement Fund, prompting the need for a fresh home after bidding farewell to their beloved Bootham Crescent ground. With planning permission granted in March 2015 and construction commencing in December 2017, it wasn't until December 2020 that this architectural marvel stood tall. Beyond its impressive facade lies more than just a sporting arena. The site also encompasses a vibrant leisure complex and an inclusive community hub designed to bring people together. On February 16th, 2021, history was made as LNER Community Stadium hosted its inaugural match between York City and AFC Fylde. Although Fylde emerged victorious with a scoreline of 3-1, it was Alex Whitmore who etched his name into the annals of time as he scored the first-ever goal at this magnificent venue. Notably versatile in nature, LNER Stadium also played host to both women's semi-finals during the prestigious 2021 Rugby League World Cup. This iconic photograph encapsulates not only sporting excellence but also serves as a testament to unity within communities.
