Dog sports association Idéfix gets a new location

Dog Sports Association Idéfix in Tilburg is set to move to a nearby football field because an asylum seekers’ centre is planned at its current site. The municipality has indicated that the football field will be the association’s permanent new location and plans to adapt it for dog sports. The field is smaller than the current grounds, but its lighting would allow evening training. The rental arrangements have not yet been settled.

The association can remain at its current site for the time being. The COA has not yet applied for a permit, and according to the project leader the club can stay there at least until spring 2027, after which the move is expected to take place. The association has about 150 members and had been uncertain about its future for months.
