Berks & Bucks Football Association (BBFA) is pleased to announce a new partnership with Village Hotels, who join as the organisation’s Official Hotel Partner for the 2026/27 season.
This exciting collaboration will see Berks & Bucks FA and Village Hotels work together to deliver high-quality, accessible venues for a wide range of events, including club and league forums, coaching conferences, workshops and refereeing development sessions—enhancing the overall experience for the grassroots football community.
Village Hotel Bracknell and Village Hotel Reading will both play a key role in the partnership, providing two well-connected and welcoming hubs across the region. Located on the Berkshire and Surrey border, Village Hotel Bracknell is a community-focused venue offering extensive leisure facilities, flexible meeting and event spaces, dining options and coworking facilities under one roof. Meanwhile, Village Hotel Reading boasts a prime riverside location close to the town centre, with excellent transport links to the M3, M4 and London Heathrow, alongside stylish accommodation, a Pub & Grill and a state-of-the-art Health & Wellness Club.
Together, the two venues will support Berks & Bucks FA in bringing people together from across the football community—creating spaces to meet, learn, celebrate and stay.
