We are looking to overhaul and update our existing outdoor artificial turf practice facilities. The aim being to increase the overall size whilst creating a more modern, safer space for all members of the local cricket community to enjoy.
We have had great use of our existing facility and it has served the club well. But it is now around 15 years old and no longer meets the required health and safety standards required for continued use. The
refurbished practice facility will meet the latest ECB standards and allow cricket practice to take place more often and in a safe environment, enabling all players young and old to improve their skills.
Our ever increasing junior section, including our new girls team members will benefit massively from the new facility.
What we'll deliver:
- Refurbishment of existing practice net facility
- Increase the length of run-up areas and cages
- Install new storage facility for practice equipment
Why it's a great idea:
The refurbished all weather practice facility will help cricketers of all ages to stay fit and active by providing more opportunities to train. The increased size of the facility will allow us to increase the use and encourage more members of the local community to come and try out cricket.
Steps to get it done:
- Remove existing artificial carpet and netting
- Repair aggregate base and lay new shock padding
- Install new artificial turf and netting
