At least five different sporting clubs will all benefit from plans to extend the pavilion in a village close to Norwich, according to sporting bodies.
Hethersett Parish Council has applied to extend the existing pavilion on the Memorial Playing Field off Recreation Road.
Full planning permission was originally given in August 2013, but the council has submitted fresh extensions plans as the village has seen rapid growth in the time since.
In the design and access statement submitted alongside the application, the council said the update is to meet the pressure already being placed on the existing facility , with hundreds more new homes proposed for the village.

At a parish council meeting held in November, chair Adrienne Quinlan said: “We are monitoring the situation and doing everything we can to keep the post office in the village.”
