Wycombe Wanderers have taken over Bucks golf club and announced plans for a new training centre.
What happened?
The League One outfit is now the leaseholder of Farnham Park Playing Fields and the South Buckinghamshire Golf Course in Farnham Royal.
Wycombe Wanderers will develop a new artificial playing pitch for community use on site. The club is seeking planning permission for a new football training centre and academy.
Why it matters for Wycombe Wanderers
The plans include a renovation of the site’s golf course, which may be adapted to a 9- or 12-hole layout. This will encourage more people to take up the sport.

What comes next?
Councillor Peter Brazier said: “I am delighted to announce that Wycombe Wanderers Football Club will be the new head leaseholder for these key sites.” The club will invest in and modernise the playing fields, maintaining the pitches and fields on a long-term basis.
Bucks Council has a partnership with BaseballSoftballUK, which has its national baseball and softball complex at Farnham Park. Other tenants have agreements to use and develop facilities across the wider site.
As of 25 Jun 2026, Wycombe Wanderers are focused on developing their new training centre and community facilities, with a strong commitment to sports development in the local area.
