Polite Notice from the Management Committee

Polite Notice from the Management Committee : To ensure both the safety and enjoyment of all those involved on match days, please can players, officials and spectators take note of the following:

* After your match has finished, please do not exit the pitch by walking behind the goal where a GK or team playing after you is warming up. This is highly dangerous and also is not fair on the players warming up if they are interrupted. The safest place is usually along the half-way line then along the side of the pitch.

* During a match, all spectators should remain out of the pitch area behind the spectator fencing (inside the outer pitch fencing) i.e. no one other than a player, coach/manager and a match official should be on the sides of the pitch - or even inside the dugouts. Again, this is for safety purposes and is often in league rules and insurance policies. This includes babies, children, parents, friends, family, boyfriend/girlfriends/husbands/wives, dogs, etc!

If anyone has any queries or concerns, please email and it will be fed back to Management for response/consideration
