Councillors are set to approve leases for a pitch in Springburn and a sports centre in Easterhouse under the People Make Glasgow Communities programme.
Easterhouse sports centre and a pitch in Springburn Park are set to be handed over to community groups by the council on 25-year deals.
Cllr Ruairi Kelly, SNP, the council’s convener for neighbourhood services and assets, said: “Easterhouse Henosis and Brunswick Community Development Trust are two fantastic local organisations who have not only taken on the responsibility for managing these community facilities but have significantly improved the scale of their offering.
The council said the trust is also committed to increasing community access, ensuring affordability and providing employment and training opportunities. It has also developed a football academy and womens’ and girls’ team.
