Harrison Park has been chosen to host two prestigious UEFA European Championship clashes.

Leek Town's proud officials announced on Sunday that their EVO-STIK Northern Premier League ground had been selected to stage the U17 internationals - Romania versus Slovenia and Slovenia versus Norway on Saturday 21 March and Thursday 26 March respectively - following an inspection of their facilities by the Football Association.

Spectators can see both Group Six fixtures at the headquarters of the First Division South club for free and Blues chairman Andy Wain said: "We are very honoured and proud that the FA have picked us to stage these games.

"We are only one of two Non-League club venues to be used with other games being staged either at Football League grounds or at St George's Park."
