The former England player, who is the Football Association's director of football development, will also be giving several local clubs the FA's Charter Standard during the event at Seafield Park, Hill Head, Fareham on Wednesday.

Sir Trevor says he hopes the facilities, which include two adult pitches, two mini-soccer pitches, a specific training grid and new changing rooms, will help encourage England stars of the future.

The changing rooms were developed following a successful funding application to The Football Foundation for £319,950 and a further £230,000 from Fareham Borough Council.

Children from seven borough schools and six adult clubs will receive the FA's Charter Standard.

It was introduced in 2001 and is aimed at all clubs outside the Football League and Premier League. It sets standards for coaching, administration and child protection, with the overall aim of improving the playing experience for all.

Councillor Connie Hockley, who is in charge of community and leisure in Fareham, said: 'Sport is an excellent way to develop team work and self-discipline, made all the better for good coaching.

'It's especially pleasing that so many of our schools and local clubs are receiving the Charter Standard at the Seafield Park opening.

'These new facilities offer a much better environment for our local young teams to further develop their footballing talents and maybe one day a local child might be the next David Beckham, David James, or Rachel Yankey.'

Sir Trevor said: 'It's essential that we encourage local authorities and junior clubs to improve football facilities and coaching at grassroots level.

'It's vital that young children have facilities where they can be safe and enjoy fun, quality coaching.

'For many youngsters, playing football can teach them life skills like communication and teamwork, but for a very talented few, facilities such as these may be where the next generation of players will develop their skills.'

Paul Thorogood, chief executive of the Football Foundation, said: 'These new facilities will really open up access to sport for people in the Hill Head area, particularly youngsters.'
