Speaking to the BBC, Mr Toone said the existing clubhouse was “extremely tired”.
“Anyone that’s been down there knows we’re permanently fighting leaks. It’s cold, it’s damp, and it’s not very inviting, to be honest,” he added.
The approved plans will see the current one-storey clubhouse demolished and improved to support its 15 teams for men, women and juniors.
The new building will have six changing rooms, toilets, including a disabled bathroom, a physio room, a games space, a club shop and larger pavilion, bar and kitchen areas.
“We want a pavilion and a clubhouse that fits our status quite honestly,” said Mr Toone.
“The clubhouse will be open for anybody to come and rent it or even use it free of charge.
“We let local schools use the ground and the facilities free of charge at the moment, so we feel it’s been a real good asset for the community, not just locally, but in the wider community as well.”
