The money for the Pitch Preparation Fund is coming from the Premier League, the FA and the Government's Football Foundation. In total £7M is being awarded.
The Fund was set up because of the problems arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The idea is to provide grants to clubs who have lost out on income because of the curtailment of last season. The money will help prepare pitches for when football returns.
Around 3000 clubs applied for grants of which 2902 will get help.
