The Townhead Park pitch has recently re-laid ahead of the new season, thanks to support from various funding boosts.
Renovations were completed, to FIFA standards, thanks to £127,212.40 from a UK Government and Scottish FA fund, more than £44,000 from East Ayrshire Council's renewable energy fund and £10,000 of CJCE's own funding.
The upgrade work was completed at the start of the month, when the pitch was then inspected for its FIFA Pro certificate.
According to the club's application for funding, the recommended lifespan for a FIFA quality pitch is eight years.
