On Sunday 13th July, police received a report of a fire at a sports club on the Upper Springfield Road. 

Fire Service colleagues confirmed that the fire had been started deliberately. 

Inspector Dalton said: "The fire, which we believe was started at around 6.20pm on Saturday 12th July, caused extensive damage to the club shop, signage and a digital scoreboard. 

"It’s absolutely unacceptable that a community organisation should be targeted in this way.

“Our enquiries are ongoing and we would appeal to anyone who may have noticed any suspicious activity in the vicinity of the club, particularly those who may have relevant dashcam or other footage, to contact us. 

"The number to quote is 803 13/07/25."
