Club Statement – Break-In at Campbell Park

We are saddened to share that a break-in occurred at Campbell Park sometime between Thursday evening and Saturday morning. During this incident, items were stolen from our clubhouse and manager’s office, and the matter has been reported to the police.

As a small, volunteer-led football club, incidents like this are disheartening and have a real impact on the progress we’re working so hard to achieve for our players, supporters, and the wider community.

Police Scotland are currently conducting an investigation, and we are assisting them fully.

We are appealing to our supporters, local residents, and businesses: if you saw anything suspicious in or around the Campbell Park area, or if you have any information that could help the investigation, please come forward.

Contact us via our Facebook page, email us at SaltcoatsVictoria@gmail.com, or if you wish to remain anonymous, call Police Scotland on 101.
