“These facilities will be there for everyone – the Wexford Football League, the Women’s League and Wexford FC as the League of Ireland club. It’ll be a game-changer across all strands of our game.”
In the statement, Wexford FC shared its excitement and thanked the FAI, Wexford Football League and Enright for their respective efforts and support.

Wexford FC currently play their home games at Ferrycarrig Park, outside Wexford town.
They finished fourth in the SSE Airtricity League Men’s First Division in 2023 and lost to Cobh Ramblers in the play-offs.
The Wexford Youths women’s team also play at Ferrycarrig, and finished seventh in the Women’s Premier Division.
