Toughsheet Community Stadium, Football stadium in Horwich, England
The Toughsheet Community Stadium is a football ground in Horwich, a town near Manchester in England, holding 28,723 covered seats with a gabled roof design. The upper corner sections remain without seating for security reasons.
The ground opened in 1997 as the Reebok Stadium, with Alan Thompson scoring the first goal during a match against Tottenham Hotspur. The sponsorship name changed several times over the years before Toughsheet arrived in 2024.
The ground houses an educational facility opened in 2014 offering sports programs for teenagers aged 16 to 19. The name "Toughsheet" comes from a regional roofing materials company.
The pitch uses hybrid grass with undersoil heating to allow play during frost. Wheelchair access is available on several levels, and signage throughout the ground makes orientation easy.
The Bolton Whites Hotel sits inside the ground itself, with rooms offering views directly onto the pitch. Guests can watch the match from their window while staying overnight.
