  • The Tom Powers Stand - The Tom Powers Stand is covered standing room with a capacity of 1095. It is named by the landowner who originally sold the land to Hinckley United, enabling them to build the ground.
  • The West Stand - Currently the West Side is hard standing for 586 spectators. Plans to convert the stand into a 400-seat covered end with changing rooms for the Juniors and an all-weather pitch await finance as of January 2009. The changing rooms have been completed and the next phase will be to cover and seat the hard standing area.

The stadium has provision for segregated seating of away stands with 80 seats on the Main Stand and 850 places on the West Stand. The Away Turnstiles are only operable when segregation is in place.

Famous quotes containing the word stands:

    “As high as mind stands above nature, so high does the state stand above physical life. Man must therefore venerate the state as a secular deity.... The march of God in the world, that is what the State is.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “Beside some philosophers of larger vision, Carlyle stands like an honest, half-despairing boy, grasping at some details only of their world systems.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “A sign, or representamen, is something which stands to somebody for something in some respect or capacity. It addresses somebody, that is, creates in the mind of that person an equivalent sign, or perhaps a more developed sign. That sign which it creates I call the interpretant of the first sign. The sign stands for something, its object. It stands for that object, not in all respects, but in reference to a sort of idea, which I have sometimes called the ground of the representamen.”
    —Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
